        The enclosed proxy is solicited by the board of directors, or the board, of Fidelity National Financial, Inc., or FNF or the Company, for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on June 13, 2018 at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time, or at any adjournment thereof, for the purposes set forth herein and in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The annual meeting will be held in the Peninsular Auditorium at 601 Riverside Avenue, Jacksonville, Florida.

        It is anticipated that such proxy, together with this proxy statement, will first be mailed on or about May 2, 2018 to all shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting.

        The Company's principal executive offices are located at 601 Riverside Avenue, Jacksonville, Florida 32204, and its telephone number at that address is (904) 854-8100.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY

        We are a leading provider of (i) title insurance, escrow and other title-related services, including trust activities, trustee sales guarantees, recordings and reconveyances and home warranty products and (ii) technology and transaction services to the real estate and mortgage industries. FNF is the nation's largest title insurance company operating through its title insurance underwriters—Fidelity National Title Insurance Company, Chicago Title Insurance Company, Commonwealth Land Title Insurance Company, Alamo Title Insurance and National Title Insurance of New York Inc.—which collectively issue more title insurance policies than any other title company in the United States. Through our subsidiary ServiceLink Holdings, LLC, or ServiceLink, we provide mortgage transaction services including title-related services and facilitation of production and management of mortgage loans.

        We underwent significant change in 2017.

•

On September 29, 2017, we completed our tax-free distribution to our FNF Group shareholders of all 83.3 million shares of New BKH Corp., or New BKH, common stock that we previously owned, which we refer to as the Spin-Off. Immediately following the Spin-Off, New BKH and our majority-owned subsidiary Black Knight Financial Services, Inc., or BKFS, engaged in a series of transactions resulting in the formation of a new publicly-traded holding company, Black Knight, Inc., or Black Knight, which owns all of the outstanding shares of BKFS. In the Spin-Off, holders of FNF Group common stock received approximately 0.30663 shares of Black Knight common stock for each share of FNF Group common stock held at the close of business on September 20, 2017. Black Knight's common stock is listed under the symbol "BKI" on the New York Stock Exchange. The BK Distribution is expected to generally be tax-free to FNF Group shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, except to the extent of any cash received in lieu of New Black Knight's fractional shares.

On November 17, 2017 we completed our previously announced split-off, which we refer to as the Split-Off, of our former wholly-owned subsidiary Cannae Holdings, Inc., or Cannae, which consists of the businesses, assets and liabilities formerly attributed to our FNF Ventures Group, or FNFV Group, including Ceridian Holding, LLC, American Blue Ribbon Holdings, LLC and T-System Holding LLC. The Split-Off was accomplished by our redemption of all of the outstanding shares of our FNFV Group common stock for outstanding shares of common stock of Cannae on a one-for-one basis. As a result of the Split-Off, Cannae is a separate, publicly traded company whose stock is listed under the symbol "CNNE" on the New York Stock Exchange.

        As a result of these transactions, FNF is now a more streamlined company with a pure focus within the title and real estate space. We expect to continue to focus on growing our business organically and through strategic acquisitions.

        On March 19, 2018, we announced that we and certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, or the Merger Agreement, with Stewart Information Services Corporation, or Stewart. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, we expect to acquire Stewart for $50.00 per share of common stock, subject to potential adjustment as described below, representing an equity value of approximately $1.2 billion. The consideration will be paid 50% in cash and 50% in FNF common stock. Stewart stockholders will also have the option to elect to receive their consideration in all cash or all stock, subject to pro rata reductions to the extent the cash or stock option is oversubscribed. The FNF common stock component will be subject to a fixed exchange ratio that is based on FNF's volume weighted average price for the twenty trading days prior to the signing of the merger agreement. For those Stewart stockholders who elect to receive all FNF stock, the exchange ratio will be equal to 1.2850, subject to potential adjustment as described below and proration to the extent the stock option is oversubscribed. We refer to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement as the Stewart Merger. The Stewart Merger is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the risk that Stewart stockholders may not adopt the merger agreement; the risk that the necessary regulatory approvals may not be obtained or may be obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated; risks that any of the closing conditions to the proposed merger may not be satisfied in a timely manner; the risk that the businesses will not be integrated successfully, that such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected or that the expected benefits of the acquisition will not be realized; and other risks detailed in the "Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information," "Risk Factors" and other sections of the Company's Form 10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

        Your shares can be voted at the annual meeting only if you vote by proxy or if you are present and vote in person. Even if you expect to attend the annual meeting, please vote by proxy to assure that your shares will be represented.

Why did I receive this proxy statement?

        The board is soliciting your proxy to vote at the annual meeting because you were a holder of FNF Group stock at the close of business on April 16, 2018, which we refer to as the record date, and therefore you are entitled to vote at the annual meeting. This proxy statement contains information about the matters to be voted on at the annual meeting, and the voting process, as well as information about the Company's directors and executive officers.

Who is entitled to vote?

        All record holders of FNF Group stock as of the close of business on April 16, 2018 are entitled to vote. As of the close of business on that day, 274,588,956 shares of FNF Group stock were issued and outstanding and eligible to vote. Each share is entitled to one vote on each matter presented at the annual meeting.

        If you hold your FNF Group shares through a broker, bank or other nominee, you are considered a "beneficial owner," and you will receive separate instructions from the nominee describing how to vote your shares. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your nominee on how to vote your shares. Beneficial owners may also vote their shares in person at the annual meeting after first obtaining a legal proxy from their nominees by following the instructions provided by their nominees, and presenting the legal proxy to the election inspectors at the annual meeting.

What shares are covered by the proxy card?

        The proxy card covers all shares of FNF Group stock held by you of record (i.e., shares registered in your name) and any shares of FNF Group stock held for your benefit in our 401(k) plan.

How do I vote?

        You may vote using any of the following methods:

•

In person at the annual meeting.  All shareholders may vote in person at the annual meeting by bringing the enclosed proxy card or proof of identification, but if you are a beneficial owner (as opposed to a record holder), you must obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or nominee and present it to the inspectors at the annual meeting with your ballot when you vote at the meeting; or



•

By proxy.  There are three ways to vote by proxy:



•

by mail, using the enclosed proxy card and return envelope;



•

by telephone, using the telephone number printed on the proxy card and following the instructions on the proxy card; or



•

by the Internet, using a unique password printed on your proxy card and following the instructions on the proxy card.

        Even if you expect to attend the annual meeting, please vote by proxy to assure that your shares will be represented.

What does it mean to vote by proxy?

        It means that you give someone else the right to vote your shares in accordance with your instructions. In this case, we are asking you to give your proxy to our Chief Executive Officer, Corporate Secretary, Assistant Corporate Secretary, and each of them, who are sometimes referred to as the "proxy holders." By giving your proxy to the proxy holders, you assure that your vote will be counted even if you are unable to attend the annual meeting. If you give your proxy but do not include specific instructions on how to vote on a particular proposal described in this proxy statement, the proxy holders will vote your shares in accordance with the recommendation of the board for such proposal.

On what am I voting?

        You will be asked to consider four proposals at the annual meeting.

•

Proposal No. 1 asks you to elect three Class I directors to serve until the 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.



•

Proposal No. 2 asks you to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation paid to our named executive officers in 2017.

Table of Contents

•

Proposal No. 3 asks you to ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2018 fiscal year.



•

Proposal No. 4 asks you to approve our Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to, among other things, remove provisions relating to our tracking stock structure.

How does the Board recommend that I vote on these proposals?

        The board recommends that you vote:

1.

"FOR" the election of the three Class I director nominees to serve until the 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders;



2.

"FOR" the approval of the non-binding advisory resolution on the compensation paid to our named executive officers;



3.

FOR" the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2018 fiscal year; and



4.

"FOR" the approval of our Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

What happens if other matters are raised at the meeting?

        Although we are not aware of any matters to be presented at the annual meeting other than those contained in the Notice of Annual Meeting, if other matters are properly raised at the annual meeting in accordance with the procedures specified in FNF's certificate of incorporation and bylaws, all proxies given to the proxy holders will be voted in accordance with their best judgment.

What if I submit a proxy and later change my mind?

        If you have submitted your proxy and later wish to revoke it, you may do so by doing one of the following: giving written notice to the Corporate Secretary prior to the annual meeting; submitting another proxy bearing a later date (in any of the permitted forms) prior to the annual meeting; or casting a ballot in person at the annual meeting.

Who will count the votes?

        Broadridge Investor Communications Services will serve as proxy tabulator and count the votes, and the results will be certified by the inspector of election.

How many votes must each proposal receive to be adopted?

        The following votes must be received:

•

For Proposal No. 1 regarding the election of directors, a majority of votes of the FNF Group stock cast is required to elect a director. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect.



•

For Proposal No. 2 regarding a non-binding advisory vote on the compensation paid to our named executive officers, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of the FNF Group stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote would be required for approval. Even though your vote is advisory and therefore will not be binding on the Company, the board will review the voting result and take it into consideration when making future decisions regarding the compensation paid to our named executive officers. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote against this proposal and broker non-votes will have no effect.



•

For Proposal No. 3 regarding the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP, under Delaware law, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of the FNF Group stock present

4

Table of Contents

in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote would be required for approval. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote against this proposal. Because this proposal is considered a "routine" matter under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange, nominees may vote in their discretion on this proposal on behalf of beneficial owners who have not furnished voting instructions.

•

For Proposal No. 4 regarding the approval of our Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, a majority of votes of the outstanding shares of FNF Group stock entitled to vote is required to approve the proposal to remove the tracking stock structure. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the effect of a vote against this proposal.

What constitutes a quorum?

        A quorum is present if a majority of the outstanding shares of the FNF Group stock entitled to vote at the annual meeting are present in person or represented by proxy. Broker non-votes and abstentions will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum of each class is present.

What are broker non-votes? If I do not vote, will my broker vote for me?

        Broker non-votes occur when nominees, such as banks and brokers holding shares on behalf of beneficial owners, do not receive voting instructions from the beneficial owners at least ten days before the meeting. If that happens, the nominees may vote those shares only on matters deemed "routine" by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the rules promulgated by the New York Stock Exchange thereunder.

        The Company believes that all the proposals to be voted on at the annual meeting, except for Proposal 3 regarding the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm, are not "routine" matters. On non-routine matters, such as Proposals No. 1, 2 and 4, nominees cannot vote unless they receive voting instructions from beneficial owners. Please be sure to give specific voting instructions to your nominee so that your vote can be counted.

What effect does an abstention have?

        With respect to Proposal 1, abstentions or directions to withhold authority will not be included in vote totals and will not affect the outcome of the vote. With respect to Proposals 2, 3 and 4, abstentions will have the effect of a vote against such proposals pursuant to our bylaws and Delaware law, which with repect to Proposals 2 and 3, require that the proposal receives the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote, and with respect to Proposal 4, require that the proposal receives the affirmative vote a majority of outstanding share entitled to vote.

Who pays the cost of soliciting proxies?

        We pay the cost of the solicitation of proxies, including preparing and mailing the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders, this proxy statement and the proxy card. Following the mailing of this proxy statement, directors, officers and employees of the Company may solicit proxies by telephone, facsimile transmission or other personal contact. Such persons will receive no additional compensation for such services. Brokerage houses and other nominees, fiduciaries and custodians who are holders of record of shares of FNF Group stock will be requested to forward proxy soliciting material to the beneficial owners of such shares and will be reimbursed by the Company for their charges and expenses in connection therewith at customary and reasonable rates. In addition, the Company has retained Georgeson Inc. to assist in the solicitation of proxies for an estimated fee of $9,500 plus reimbursement of expenses.

What if I share a household with another shareholder?

        We have adopted a procedure approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission, called "householding." Under this procedure, FNF Group shareholders of record who have the same address and last name and do not participate in electronic delivery of proxy materials will receive only one copy of our Annual Report and Proxy Statement unless one or more of these shareholders notifies us that they wish to continue receiving individual copies. This procedure will reduce our printing costs and postage fees. Shareholders who participate in householding will continue to receive separate proxy cards. Also, householding will not in any way affect dividend check mailings. If you are a shareholder who resides in the same household with another shareholder, or if you hold more than one account registered in your name at the same address, and wish to receive a separate proxy statement and annual report or notice of internet availability of proxy materials for each account, please contact, Broadridge, toll free at 1-866-540-7095. You may also write to Broadridge, Householding Department, at 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717. Beneficial shareholders can request information about householding from their banks, brokers or other holders of record. We hereby undertake to deliver promptly upon written or oral request, a separate copy of the Annual Report to Shareholders, or this Proxy Statement, as applicable, to a shareholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the document was delivered.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND RELATED MATTERS

Corporate Governance Guidelines

        Our corporate governance guidelines provide, along with the charters of the committees of the board of directors, a framework for the functioning of the board of directors and its committees and to establish a common set of expectations as to how the board of directors should perform its functions. The Corporate Governance Guidelines address the composition of the board of directors, the selection of directors, the functioning of the board of directors, the committees of the board of directors, the evaluation and compensation of directors and the expectations of directors, including ethics and conflicts of interest. These guidelines specifically provide that a majority of the members of the board

6

Table of Contents

of directors must be outside directors whom the board of directors has determined have no material relationship with us and whom otherwise meet the independence criteria established by the New York Stock Exchange. The board of directors reviews these guidelines and other aspects of our governance at least annually. The board reviewed our corporate governance guidelines in April 2018 and approved changes relating to the factors our board will consider in selecting nominees for director, including those relating to all aspects of diversity. A copy of our Corporate Governance Guidelines is available for review on the Investor Relations page of our website at www.fnf.com. Shareholders may also obtain a copy by writing to the Corporate Secretary at the address set forth under "Available Information" below.

Code of Ethics and Business Conduct

        Our board of directors has adopted a Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Officers, which is applicable to our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer and our Chief Accounting Officer, and a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which is applicable to all our directors, officers and employees. The purpose of these codes is to: (i) promote honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of conflicts of interest; (ii) promote full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure; (iii) promote compliance with applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations; (iv) ensure the protection of our legitimate business interests, including corporate opportunities, assets and confidential information; and (v) deter wrongdoing. Our codes of ethics were adopted to reinvigorate and renew our commitment to our longstanding standards for ethical business practices. Our reputation for integrity is one of our most important assets and each of our employees and directors is expected to contribute to the care and preservation of that asset. Under our codes of ethics, an amendment to or a waiver or modification of any ethics policy applicable to our directors or executive officers must be disclosed to the extent required under Securities and Exchange Commission and/or New York Stock Exchange rules. We intend to disclose any such amendment or waiver by posting it on the Investor Relations page of our website at www.fnf.com.

        Copies of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and our Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Officers are available for review on the Investor Relations page of our website at www.fnf.com. Shareholders may also obtain a copy of any of these codes by writing to the Corporate Secretary at the address set forth under "Available Information" below.

The Board

        Our board is composed of Douglas K. Ammerman, Willie D. Davis, William P. Foley, II, Thomas M. Hagerty, Janet Kerr, Daniel D. (Ron) Lane, Richard N. Massey, Heather H. Murren, Raymond R. Quirk, John D. Rood, Peter O. Shea, Jr. and Cary H. Thompson, with Mr. Foley serving as non-executive Chairman of the Board. After discussion among Mr. Davis and the other directors, it was decided that Mr. Davis would not be nominated for re-election at the annual meeting. In order for the Board to continue to benefit from Mr. Davis' valuable insight and a diverse point of view, Mr. Davis has been appointed by the board to serve as Director Emeritus for a three-year term beginning after our 2018 annual meeting of shareholders. As Director Emeritus, Mr. Davis will be invited to attend and participate in board meetings, but will not vote on board matters, and will receive an annual cash retainer of $40,000 and an annual equity retainer with a value of approximately $107,500, which are equal to ¹/2 of the cash and equity retainers received by our other directors, for his service. In determining that Mr. Davis should serve as Director Emeritus, Mr. Davis and the board considered that he still provides valuable insight and a diverse point of view during board deliberations.

        Our board met five times in 2017. All directors attended at least 75% of the meetings of the board and of the committees on which they served during 2017. Our non-management directors also met periodically in executive sessions without management, and our Lead Director presides over these executive sessions. We do not, as a general matter, require our board members to attend our annual

Table of Contents

meeting of shareholders, although each of our directors is invited to attend our 2018 annual meeting. During 2017, one of our board members attended the annual meeting of shareholders.

Majority Voting

        In February 2017, in response to our shareholders' support of our proposal at our 2016 annual shareholders meeting concerning majority voting in uncontested director elections, our board of directors amended and restated our bylaws to implement a "majority voting" bylaw.

        Pursuant to Section 3.1 of our bylaws, each director shall be elected by a majority of the votes cast with respect to the director at any meeting for the election of directors at which a quorum is present. However, if as of 10 days in advance of the date we file our proxy statement with the SEC the number of director nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected in such election (a "contested election"), the directors shall be elected by the vote of plurality of the votes cast.

        In an uncontested election of directors, any incumbent director who does not receive a majority of the votes cast will promptly tender his resignation to the board of directors. The board will decide, after considering the recommendation of the corporate governance and nominating committee, whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation, or whether other action should be taken. The director nominee in question will not participate in the recommendation or decision making process. We will publicly disclose an explanation by the board of its decision within 90 days after we publish the election results. If the board determines to accept a director's resignation, or if a director nominee who is not an incumbent director is not elected, then the board, in its sole discretion, may fill any resulting vacancy in accordance with our bylaws.

Director Independence

        All of our directors other than Mr. Quirk, who is our Chief Executive Officer, are non-employees. During the first quarter of 2018, the board of directors determined that Douglas K. Ammerman, Willie D. Davis, Thomas M. Hagerty, Janet Kerr, Daniel D. Lane, Richard N. Massey, Heather H. Murren, John D. Rood, Peter O. Shea, Jr. and Cary H. Thompson are independent under the criteria established by the New York Stock Exchange and our Corporate Governance Guidelines. The board of directors also determined that Messrs. Massey, Lane and Thompson meet the additional independence standards of the New York Stock Exchange for compensation committee members.

        In determining independence, the board considered all relationships that might bear on our directors' independence from FNF. The board of directors determined that William P. Foley, II is not independent because he was the Executive Chairman and an employee of FNF during 2015 and the first eight days of 2016; and Raymond R. Quirk is not independent because he is the Chief Executive Officer and an employee of FNF.

        In considering the independence of Douglas K. Ammerman, Thomas M. Hagerty, Daniel D. Lane, Heather H. Murren, Richard N. Massey, John D. Rood and Cary H. Thompson, the board of directors considered the following factors:

•

In 2017, Messrs. Hagerty, Mr. Massey and Mr. Rood each served as directors of and own equity interests in our subsidiary ServiceLink and in Black Knight, which was our subsidiary prior to the Spin-Off in September 2017. Mr. Thompson also served as a director of ServiceLink and owns equity interests in ServiceLink and Black Knight.



•

Mr. Hagerty is a Managing Director of Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P., which owns approximately 20.9% of the outstanding interests in ServiceLink.



•

Messrs. Ammerman, Hagerty, Massey and Rood each own a small non-voting minority interest in Black Knight Sports and Entertainment LLC, which owns the Vegas Golden Knights.

8

Table of Contents

Mr. Foley is the majority interest holder, and is Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Black Knight Sports and Entertainment LLC.

•

Ms. Murren's spouse is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of MGM Resorts International, which owns a majority interest in the T-Mobile Arena where the Vegas Golden Knights play home games. FNF is a season ticket holder for Vegas Golden Knights home games. In addition, FNF may use MGM hotel and conference facilities from time to time for corporate events. Amounts paid by FNF to entities owned or controlled by MGM Resorts International are at market rates.



•

Mr. Thompson is a Vice Chairman of Bank of America Merrill Lynch, and FNF made payments to and received payments from entities affiliated with Bank of America Merrill Lynch in 2017. The board of directors determined that these payments do not impair Mr. Thompson's independence because his compensation from Bank of America Merrill Lynch is not dependent on the amount of business Bank of America Merrill Lynch or its affiliates does with FNF or its subsidiaries.

        The board of directors determined that these relationships were not of a nature that would impair the independence of Mr. Ammerman, Mr. Hagerty, Ms. Murren, Mr. Massey, Mr. Rood or Mr. Thompson. Ms. Kerr, Mr. Lane and Mr. Shea had no relationships with the Company that required consideration in determining their independence.

Committees of the Board

        The board has three standing committees: an audit committee, a compensation committee and a corporate governance and nominating committee. The charter of each of the audit, compensation and corporate governance and nominating committee is available on the Investor Relations page of our website at www.fnf.com. Shareholders also may obtain a copy of any of these charters by writing to the Corporate Secretary at the address set forth under "Available Information" below.

Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee

        The members of the corporate governance and nominating committee are Peter O. Shea, Jr. (Chair) and Richard N. Massey. Each of Messrs. Shea and Massey was deemed to be independent by the board, as required by the New York Stock Exchange. The corporate governance and nominating committee met two times in 2017.

        The primary functions of the corporate governance and nominating committee, as identified in its charter, are:

•

identifying individuals qualified to become members of the board and making recommendations to the board regarding nominees for election;



•

reviewing the independence of each director and making a recommendation to the board with respect to each director's independence;



•

developing and recommending to the board the corporate governance principles applicable to us and reviewing our corporate governance guidelines at least annually;



•

making recommendations to the board with respect to the membership of the audit, compensation and corporate governance and nominating committees;



•

overseeing the evaluation of the performance of the board and its committees on a continuing basis, including an annual self-evaluation of the performance of the corporate governance and nominating committee;



•

considering director nominees recommended by shareholders; and

•

reviewing our overall corporate governance and reporting to the board on its findings and any recommendations.

Audit Committee

        The members of the audit committee are Douglas K. Ammerman (Chair), Heather H. Murren and John D. Rood. The board has determined that each of the audit committee members is financially literate and independent as required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the New York Stock Exchange, and that each of Mr. Ammerman, Ms. Murren and Mr. Rood is an audit committee financial expert, as defined by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The board of directors also reviewed Mr. Ammerman's service on the audit committee in light of his concurrent service on the audit committees of four other companies. The board of directors considered Mr. Ammerman's extensive financial and accounting background and expertise as a former partner of KPMG, his knowledge of our company and understanding of our financial statements as a long-time director and audit committee member, and the fact that Mr. Ammerman is retired from active employment, and determined that Mr. Ammerman's service on the audit committees of four public companies, including FNF's audit committee, would not impair his ability to effectively serve on FNF's audit committee. The audit committee met nine times in 2017.

        The primary functions of the audit committee include:

•

appointing, compensating and overseeing our independent registered public accounting firm;



•

overseeing the integrity of our financial statements and our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements;



•

discussing the annual audited financial statements and unaudited quarterly financial statements with management and the independent registered public accounting firm;



•

establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints (including anonymous complaints) we receive concerning accounting, internal accounting controls, auditing matters or potential violations of law;



•

approving audit and non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm;



•

discussing earnings press releases and financial information provided to analysts and rating agencies;



•

discussing with management our policies and practices with respect to risk assessment and risk management;



•

•

producing an annual report for inclusion in our proxy statement, in accordance with applicable rules and regulations.

        The audit committee is a separately-designated standing committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Report of the Audit Committee

        The audit committee of the board of directors submits the following report on the performance of certain of its responsibilities for the year 2017:

        The primary function of our audit committee is oversight of (i) the quality and integrity of our financial statements and related disclosures, (ii) our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (iii) the independent registered public accounting firm's qualifications and independence, and (iv) the performance of our internal audit function and independent registered public accounting firm. Our audit committee acts under a written charter, and we review the adequacy of our charter at least annually. Our audit committee is comprised of the three directors named below, each of whom has been determined by the board of directors to be independent as defined by New York Stock Exchange independence standards. In addition, our board of directors has determined that each of Mr. Ammerman, Ms. Murren and Mr. Rood is an audit committee financial expert as defined by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

        In performing our oversight function, we reviewed and discussed with management and Ernst & Young LLP, or EY, our independent registered public accounting firm, our audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017. Management and EY reported to us that our consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position and results of operations and cash flows of FNF and its subsidiaries in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. We also discussed with EY matters covered by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standards No. 16 (Communications With Audit Committees).

        We have received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from EY required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountant's communications with the audit committee concerning independence, and have discussed with them their independence. In addition, we have considered whether EY's provision of non-audit services to us is compatible with their independence.

        Finally, we discussed with our internal auditors and EY the overall scope and plans for their respective audits. We met with EY at each meeting. Management was present for some, but not all, of these discussions. These discussions included the results of their examinations, their evaluations of our internal controls and the overall quality of our financial reporting.

        Based on the reviews and discussions referred to above, we recommended to our board of directors that the audited financial statements referred to above be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, and that EY be appointed independent registered public accounting firm for FNF for 2018.

        In carrying out our responsibilities, we look to management and the independent registered public accounting firm. Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of our financial statements and for maintaining effective internal control. Management is also responsible for assessing and maintaining the effectiveness of internal control over the financial reporting process. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for auditing our annual financial statements and expressing an opinion as to whether the statements are fairly stated in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The independent registered public accounting firm performs its responsibilities in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. Our members are not professionally engaged in the practice of accounting or auditing, and are not experts under the Exchange Act in either of those fields or in auditor independence.

Compensation Committee

        The members of the compensation committee are Richard N. Massey (Chair), Daniel D. Lane and Cary H. Thompson. Each of Messrs. Massey, Lane and Thompson was deemed to be independent by the board, as required by the New York Stock Exchange. The compensation committee met six times during 2017. Our compensation committee reviews its charter annually. The functions of the compensation committee include the following:

•

reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the Chief Executive Officer's compensation, evaluating their performance in light of those goals and objectives, and setting the Chief Executive Officer's compensation level based on this evaluation;



•

setting salaries and approving incentive compensation and equity awards, as well as compensation policies, for all other officers who are designated as Section 16 officers by our board;



•

making recommendations to the board with respect to incentive-compensation programs and equity-based plans that are subject to board approval;



•

approving any employment or severance agreements with our Section 16 officers;



•

granting any awards under equity compensation plans and annual bonus plans to our Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Chairman and the Section 16 Officers;

producing an annual report on executive compensation for inclusion in our proxy statement, in accordance with applicable rules and regulations.

        For more information regarding the responsibilities of the compensation committee, please refer to the section of this proxy statement entitled "Compensation Discussion and Analysis and Executive and Director Compensation" above.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

        We have separated the positions of CEO and Chairman of the board of directors in recognition of the differences between the two roles. Richard N. Massey, one of our independent directors, serves as our Lead Director. Our board has adopted a Charter of the Lead Independent Director that defines the responsibilities of the Lead Director, which include:

•

preside at meetings of the board of directors in the absence of, or upon the request of, the Chairman;



•

review board meeting agendas and schedules in collaboration with the Chairman and recommend matters for the board to consider and information to be provided to the board;



•

serve as a liaison and supplemental channel of communication between non-employee/independent directors and the Chairman without inhibiting direct communications between the Chairman and other directors;

12

Table of Contents

•

serve as the principal liaison for consultation and communication between the non-employee/independent directors and shareholders;



•

advise the Chairman concerning the retention of advisors and consultants who report directly to the board; and



•

be available to major shareholders for consultation and direct communication.

        The board considers it to be useful and appropriate to designate a Lead Director to serve in a lead capacity to coordinate the activities of the other non-employee directors and to perform such other duties and responsibilities as the board may determine. The board of directors administers its risk oversight function directly and through committees. The audit committee oversees FNF's financial reporting process, risk management program, legal and regulatory compliance, performance of the independent auditor, internal audit function, and financial and disclosure controls. Management identifies strategic risks of FNF and aligns the annual audit plan with the auditable risks. Management presents the identified risks and the audit plan to the audit committee for review and approval. Management also reports quarterly to the audit committee and the board of directors regarding claims. The audit committee also receives quarterly reports on compliance matters. The corporate governance and nominating committee considers the adequacy of FNF's governance structures and policies. The compensation committee reviews and approves FNF's compensation and other benefit plans, policies and programs and considers whether any of those plans, policies or programs creates risks that are likely to have a material adverse effect on FNF. Each committee provides reports on its activities to the full board of directors.

Contacting the Board

        Any shareholder or other interested person who desires to contact any member of the board or the non-management members of the board as a group may do so by writing to: Board of Directors, c/o Corporate Secretary, Fidelity National Financial, Inc., 601 Riverside Avenue, Jacksonville, FL 32204. Communications received are distributed by the Corporate Secretary to the appropriate member or members of the board.

CERTAIN INFORMATION ABOUT OUR DIRECTORS

Director Criteria, Qualifications and Experience and Process for Selecting Directors

        FNF underwent significant change in 2017. On September 29, 2017, we completed the Spin-Off of Black Knight to our FNF Group shareholders. On November 17, 2017, we completed the Split-Off of Cannae, which consisted of the businesses, assets and liabilities formerly attributed to our FNFV Group, including Ceridian Holding, LLC, American Blue Ribbon Holdings, LLC and T-System Holding LLC.

        As a result of these transactions, FNF is now a more streamlined company with a pure focus within the title and real estate space. We expect to continue to focus on growing our business organically and through strategic acquisitions. As part of that strategy, on March 18, 2018, we announced that we had entered into the Merger Agreement with Stewart.

        Our board and the corporate governance and nominating committee is committed to include the best available candidates for nomination to election to our board based on merit. Our board and our corporate governance and nominating committee continuously evaluates our board's composition with the goal of developing a board that meets our strategic goals, and one that includes diverse, experienced and highly qualified individuals.

13

Table of Contents

        The corporate governance and nominating committee does not set specific, minimum qualifications that nominees must meet in order for the committee to recommend them to the board, but rather believes that each nominee should be evaluated based on his or her individual merits, taking into account our needs and the overall composition of the board. In accordance with our Corporate Governance Guidelines, the corporate governance and nominating committee considers, among other things, the following criteria in fulfilling its duty to recommend nominees for election as directors:

•

personal qualities and characteristics, accomplishments and reputation in the business community;



•

current knowledge and contacts in the communities in which we do business and in our industry or other industries relevant to our business;



•

ability and willingness to commit adequate time to the board and committee matters;



•

the fit of the individual's skills and personality with those of other directors and potential directors in building a board that is effective, collegial and responsive to our needs; and



•

diversity of viewpoints, background, experience, and other demographics, and all aspects of diversity in order to enable the Board to perform its duties and responsibilities effectively, including candidates with a diversity of age, gender, nationality, race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation.

        Each year in connection with the nomination of candidates for election to the board, the corporate governance and nominating committee evaluates the background of each candidate, including candidates that may be submitted by shareholders.

        We believe that the current composition of our board has served us well and that our current directors possess relevant experience, skills and qualifications that contributed to a well-functioning board that effectively oversees our long-term strategy. FNF has undergone significant change in recent years, and our board believes that it has been important to maintain consistency in our board to execute upon our long-term strategy, while selectively adding new board members who have important skill sets, experience or diversity of viewpoint. Our board believes our board, which is composed of directors who have a strong understanding of our business, operational and strategic goals, as well as our industry and the risks we face, has been crucial to our ability to effectively execute on our long-term strategy.

        In connection with the 2018 annual meeting of shareholders, the corporate governance and nominating committee undertook to examine ways that it could foster the diversity of our board across many dimensions to maintain its ability to operate at a high-functioning level and to reflect the board's commitment to inclusiveness. In connection with this examination, the committee revised our Corporate Governance Guidelines to expressly include diversity of age, gender, nationality, race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation as a part of the criteria the committee may consider when selecting nominees for election to the board, all in the context of the needs of our board at any given point in time. Specifically, the corporate governance and nominating committee is focused on considering highly qualified women and individuals from minority groups who may be recommended by our directors, management, or our shareholders as candidates for nomination as directors.

Proxy Access

        In February 2016, in response to our shareholders' support of a "proxy access" shareholder proposal at our 2015 annual shareholders meeting, our board of directors amended and restated our bylaws to implement a "proxy access" procedure for shareholder director nominations. Pursuant to Section 3.1 of our bylaws, a shareholder, or a group of up to 25 shareholders, may include in our proxy

14

Table of Contents

materials director nominees constituting up to two individuals or 20% of our board, whichever is greater, provided that:

•

the nominating shareholder(s) own a number of shares representing 3% or more of the total voting power of the Company's outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote in the election of directors;



•

the nominating shareholder(s) have owned that number of shares continuously for at least three years; and



•

the nominating shareholder(s) and their director nominee(s) otherwise satisfy the applicable requirements of Section 3.1 of the amended and restated bylaws.

        A shareholder who wishes to suggest a qualified candidate for director to the corporate governance and nominating committee but does not meet the requirements described above may do so by writing to our Corporate Secretary at 601 Riverside Avenue, Jacksonville, Florida 32204. The submission must provide the information required by, and otherwise comply with the procedures set forth in, Section 3.1 of our bylaws. Section 3.1 also requires that the nomination notice be submitted by a prescribed time in advance of the meeting. The corporate governance and nominating committee and the board apply the same criteria in evaluating candidates nominated by shareholders as in evaluating candidates recommended by other sources. Upon receipt of a shareholder-proposed director candidate that does not meet the "proxy access" requirements of our bylaws, the corporate secretary will assess the board's needs, primarily whether or not there is any current pending vacancy or a possible need to be filled by adding or replacing a director. The corporate secretary will also prepare a director profile by comparing the desired list of criteria with the candidate's qualifications. Submissions that meet the criteria outlined above and in our corporate governance guidelines will be forwarded to the Chairman of the corporate governance and nominating committee for further review and consideration. To date, no suggestions with respect to candidates for nomination have been received from shareholders.

        The matrix below lists the skills and experience that we consider most important for our directors in light of our current business and structure.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

        The following discussion and analysis of compensation programs should be read with the compensation tables and related disclosures that follow. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are based on our current plans and expectations regarding future compensation programs. Compensation programs that we adopt in the future may differ materially from the programs summarized in this discussion. The following discussion may also contain statements regarding corporate performance targets and goals. These targets and goals are disclosed in the limited context of our compensation programs and should not be understood to be statements of management's expectations or estimates of results or other guidance. We specifically caution investors not to apply these statements to other contexts.

        In this compensation discussion and analysis, we provide an overview of our approach to compensating our named executive officers in 2017, including the objectives of our compensation programs and the principles upon which our compensation programs and decisions are based. Our named executive officers, and their titles, in 2017 were:

•

Raymond R. Quirk, our Chief Executive Officer;



•

Michael J. Nolan, our President;



•

Brent B. Bickett, our Executive Vice President, Corporate Strategy;



•

Roger S. Jewkes, our Chief Operating Officer; and



•

Anthony J. Park, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Split-Off of FNFV Group and Spin-Off Black Knight

        On November 17, 2017, we completed the Split-Off of our FNFV Group by redeeming 100% of our FNFV Group shares for shares of Cannae Holdings, Inc. (Cannae) (the Split-Off). Our FNFV Group shareholders were strongly in favor of the Split-Off, with more than 99% of the votes cast at the special meeting to approve the Split-Off voted in favor.

        On September 29, 2017, we returned significant value to our FNF Group shareholders when we completed the Spin-Off of Black Knight. As a result of the Spin-Off, our FNF Group shareholders received approximately 0.30663 shares of Black Knight, the new publicly traded parent of our former majority-owned subsidiary BKFS.

        Both Cannae and Black Knight are independent publicly-traded companies, and FNFV Group shares are no longer outstanding. For additional information concerning the Split-Off and the Spin-Off, see the section in this proxy statement titled "General Information about the Company" above. These transactions positively impacted our executive compensation programs by allowing us to continue simplifying these programs and renew focus on our core title operations.

Financial Highlights

        FNF has performed well for our shareholders over the past several years. In 2017, we generated approximately $7.7 billion in total revenue (a 5.6% increase from 2016), and approximately $771 million in net earnings (an 18.6% increase from 2016). As reflected in the charts below, from 2015 through 2017, we have delivered strong growth in total revenue and net earnings.

        During this three year period, from January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2017, we delivered a total return to our shareholders of 60.1%, compared to S&P 500 total return of 36.6% during the same period. This includes a return of approximately $278 million to our shareholders in the form of cash dividends. Total shareholder return is based on stock price changes as adjusted to account for the Black Knight Spin-Off in 2017 (assuming that the underlying shares were sold on the spin-off closing date) and cash dividends paid.

Pay for Performance

        The primary goal of our executive compensation programs in 2017 was to drive continued growth and successful execution of our strategic business objectives. We believe our programs achieve this goal by:

•

tying material portions of our named executive officers' compensation to the performance of our core title operations;



•

structuring our performance-based programs to focus our named executive officers on attaining pre-established, objectively-determinable key performance goals that are aligned with and support our key strategic business objectives in our various operations, which, in turn, are aimed at growing long-term shareholder value for our shareholders;



•

recognizing our executives' leadership abilities, scope of responsibilities, experience, effectiveness, and individual performance achievements; and



•

attracting, motivating, and retaining a highly qualified and effective management team that can deliver superior performance and build shareholder value over the long term.

        As in past years, there was a direct correlation between our named executive officers' pay and our performance in 2017. Here are a few highlights:

•

We far exceeded both our adjusted title revenue and adjusted title pre-tax profit margin goals as set by our compensation committee under our annual incentive plan. Consistent with this strong performance, our named executive officers earned an annual incentive equal to 200% of their respective target annual incentive opportunities. See the "FNF Annual Incentive Performance Measures and Results" section below.



•

We far exceeded the quarterly adjusted title pre-tax profit margin goals set by our compensation committee as performance criteria for our 2016 restricted stock awards. As a result, we expect

23

Table of Contents

these awards to fully vest, subject to each executive's continued employment with us to satisfy the time-based vesting requirements for those awards.

•

Prior to the Split-Off, our FNFV Group created substantial value for our FNFV Group shareholders with our investment in One Digital, which we sold on June 6, 2017 for $560 million, representing a 4.6x cash on cash return multiple and a 41% IRR. After repayment of debt, payout to option holders and a minority equity investor and other transaction related payments, FNFV Group received $331 million from the sale, which includes $326 million of cash and $5 million of purchase price holdback receivable.

        Note that the financial measures used as performance targets for our named executive officers described in this discussion are non-GAAP measures and differ from the comparable GAAP measures reported in our financial statements. The measures are adjusted to exclude the impact of certain non-recurring and other items. We explain how we calculate these measures in the "Analysis of Compensation Components" section below.

SHAREHOLDER VOTE ON 2016 EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

        At our 2017 annual meeting of shareholders, we held a non-binding advisory vote, also called a "say on pay" vote, on the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in the 2017 proxy statement. A majority of our shareholders approved our "say on pay" proposal, with approximately 70% of the votes cast in favor of the proposal and approximately 30% of the votes cast against the proposal. This reflects significantly more support than at our 2016 annual meeting of shareholder where only 54% of our shareholders approved our "say on pay" proposal. The compensation committee considered these results when evaluating our executive compensation program.

SHAREHOLDER OUTREACH AND CHANGES TO OUR COMPENSATION PROGRAMS IN 2017

        Our compensation committee is committed to listening and responding to the views of our shareholders in creating and tailoring our executive compensation programs. Following the 2017 annual meeting of shareholders and the 2016 "say on pay" shareholder vote, our President, Chief Financial Officer, and Treasurer met with our investors in break-out sessions at investor conferences, as well as in independent one-on-one investor meetings, to discuss our business and stock price performance, as well as discuss and receive feedback on our compensation programs. In this regard, we met with investors at more than 13 investor conferences and numerous one-on-one meetings. The investors with whom we met in 2017 represented 13 of our top 20 shareholders, who collectively owned more than 40% of our shares as of December 31, 2017.

        We believe that we have been highly responsive to our shareholders' concerns, and have created and continued compensation programs that achieved our strategic corporate objectives, focused our executives on achieving superior operating results and shareholder returns, balanced short-term and long-term incentives, and maintained a strong correlation between pay and performance.

IMPROVEMENTS TO OUR COMPENSATION PROGRAMS

        In response to feedback received during our investor outreach efforts, and the analysis of our compensation programs by proxy advisory firms, we have made a number of improvements to our compensation programs over the last four years to address concerns raised by our shareholders and

proxy advisory firms. Following are highlights of the key changes, demonstrating the responsiveness of our compensation committee:

GOVERNANCE AND COMPENSATION BEST PRACTICES

        We periodically review our compensation programs and make adjustments that are believed to be in the best interests of our company and our shareholders. As part of this process, we review compensation trends and consider current best practices, and make changes in our compensation programs when we deem it appropriate, all with the goal of continually improving our approach to executive compensation.

COMPONENTS OF TOTAL COMPENSATION AND PAY MIX

        We compensate our executive officers primarily through a mix of base salary, annual cash incentives and long-term equity-based incentives. We also provide our executive officers with the same retirement and employee benefit plans that are offered to our other employees, as well as limited other benefits, although these items are not significant components of our compensation programs. The following table provides information regarding the elements of compensation provided to our named executive officers in 2017:

Table of Contents

        As illustrated above, a significant portion of each named executive officer's total compensation is based on performance-based cash and equity incentives that are tied to our financial performance, stock and equity price. Combined, performance-based forms of compensation comprised between 77.6% and 88.7% of our named executive officers' total compensation in 2017.

        Our compensation committee believes this emphasis on performance-based incentive compensation is an effective way to use compensation to help us achieve our business objectives while directly aligning our executive officers' interests with the interests of our shareholders.

Analysis of Compensation Components

Base Salary

        Our compensation committee typically reviews salary levels annually as part of our performance review process, as well as in the event of promotions or other changes in our named executive officers' positions or responsibilities. When establishing base salary levels, our compensation committee considers the peer compensation data provided by its external independent compensation consultant, Mercer, as well as a number of qualitative factors, including each named executive officer's experience, knowledge, skills, level of responsibility and performance. Messrs. Bickett's and Jewkes' 2017 base salaries were unchanged from 2016. Mr. Quirk, Mr. Nolan, and Mr. Park received increases in their base salaries in 2017 to reflect their excellent performance and to move their total compensation close to the 50^th percentile of market.

Annual Performance-Based Cash Incentives

        We award annual cash incentives based upon the achievement of pre-defined business and financial objectives relating to our core operations, which are specified in the first quarter of the year. Annual incentives play an important role in our approach to total compensation, as they motivate participants to achieve key fiscal year objectives by conditioning the payment of incentives on the achievement of defined, objectively determinable financial performance goals.

        In the first quarter of 2017, our compensation committee approved our fiscal year business performance objectives and a target incentive opportunity for each participant, as well as the potential incentive opportunity range for maximum and threshold performance. No annual incentive payments are payable to a named executive officer if the pre-established, minimum performance levels are not met, and payments are capped at a maximum performance payout level. The financial performance results are derived from our annual financial statements (as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC), which are subject to an audit by our independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young LLP. However, as discussed below, we use financial measures as performance targets for our named executive officers that differ from the comparable GAAP measures reported in our financial statements. The incentive award target opportunities are expressed as a percentage of the individual's base salary. Our named executive officers' 2017 target incentive opportunities were the same as their 2016 target incentive opportunities.

        The amount of the annual incentives actually paid depends on the level of achievement of the pre-established goals as follows:

•

If threshold performance is not achieved, no incentive will be paid.



•

If threshold performance is achieved, the incentive payout will equal 50% of the executive's target incentive opportunity.



•

If target performance is achieved, the incentive payout will equal 100% of the executive's target incentive opportunity.

30

---

Table of Contents

•

If maximum performance is achieved, the incentive payout will equal 200% of the executive's target incentive opportunity.



•

Between these levels, the payout is interpolated.

        An important tenet of our pay for performance philosophy is to utilize our compensation programs to motivate our executives to achieve performance levels that reach beyond what is expected of us as a company. The performance targets for the FNF incentive plan are approved by our compensation committee and are based on discussions between management and our compensation committee. Target performance levels are intended to be difficult to achieve, but not unrealistic. Maximum performance levels are established to limit short-term incentive awards so as to avoid excessive compensation while encouraging executives to reach for performance beyond the target levels.

        In setting 2017 performance targets under our annual incentive plans, our compensation committee considered the following factors, which are discussed in more detail below:

•

the Mortgage Bankers Association's projection that mortgage originations would decline;



•

our 2017 business plan, including our underlying assumptions that refinance volumes would decline by 49%, the residential purchase market would increase by 2%, and the national commercial market would decline by 6%;



•

2017 performance targets as compared to 2016 performance targets and 2016 actual performance;



•

alignment of the 2017 performance targets with the investment community's published projections for us and our publicly-traded title company competitors; and



•

the effect that reaching performance targets would have on our growth and margins.

        FNF Annual Incentive Performance Measures and Results.    The 2017 performance goals under the FNF incentive plan were based on adjusted title revenue and adjusted pre-tax title margin relating to our title segment. We believe that these performance measures are among the most important measures of the financial performance of our core business, and they can have a significant impact on long-term stock price and the investing community's expectations. When combined with the strong focus on long-term shareholder return created by our equity-based incentives and our named executive officers' significant stock ownership, these two annual performance measures provide a degree of checks and balances, requiring our named executive officers to consider both short-term and long-term performance of our businesses and investments. The annual incentive performance targets are synchronized with shareholder expectations, desired increase in our stock price, our annual budget, our long-term financial plan, and our board of directors' expectations. Further, both measures are measures that executives can directly affect.

31

Table of Contents

        In the following table, we explain how we calculate the performance measures and why we use them.

        The title insurance business is directly impacted by managements' effectiveness in executing on our business strategy, and macro-economic factors such as mortgage interest rates, credit availability, job markets, economic growth, and changing demographics. Due to the year-to-year changes in these key economic factors, we do not think comparisons of financial and business goals and performance from one year to another are meaningful indicators of the rigor of our performance goals or managements' performance in a given year. Instead, we think our performance goals and managements' performance relative to those goals should be assessed in light of the economic environment within which the goals were established and management operated. In setting the threshold, target and maximum goals relating to the performance measures under the FNF incentive plan, the committee considered management's expectations for 2017 with respect to forecasted originations, interest rates and the relative mix of purchase versus refinance originations. These expectations are based on forecasts available in March 2017 provided by the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) and Fannie Mae, anticipated rising interest rates making housing less affordable and significantly depressing the residential and refinance markets, and recent and expected industry and company trends as reflected in our 2017 strategic financial plan. We prepare a base plan as well as upside and downside scenarios, which, taken together, form the strategic financial plan and the basis of the performance measure targets. To establish threshold and maximum goals, percentage adjustments were applied to the target goals. The pre-tax title margin threshold and maximum goals were set at 2.5% below and 2.5% above the target, respectively, and title revenue threshold and maximum goals were set at 7.5% below and 7.5% above the target, respectively. Target performance levels are intended to be difficult to achieve, but not unrealistic. Maximum performance levels are established to limit short-term incentive awards so as to avoid excessive compensation while encouraging executives to reach for performance beyond the target levels. All of the goals are subject to review and approval by our compensation committee.

Table of Contents

        Our 2017 results exceeded target thresholds due to strong performance by our executive officers and numerous factors, including a 4% increase in agency title insurance premiums driven by our active management of our agent portfolio to maximize profitability and minimize claims risk, a 3% increase in direct title insurance premiums driven by increased purchase transactions and escrow fees, and enhancements to our underwriting processes which have resulted in lower policy year loss ratios compared to older years that, in turn, allowed us to reduce our provision for claim losses in the fourth quarter of 2017.

        Set forth below are the 2017 weightings of the threshold, target and maximum performance levels, and 2017 performance results under our annual incentive plan. Dollar amounts are in millions.

        The table below shows each named executive officer's target percentage under our annual incentive plan, the calculation of their 2017 incentive awards based on the 2017 performance multiplier from the results shown in the tables above, and the amounts earned under the annual incentive plans.

Long-Term Equity Incentives

        In October 2017, we granted performance-based restricted stock to each of our named executive officers.

        We do not attempt to time the granting of awards to any internal or external events. Our general practice has been for our compensation committee to grant equity awards during the fourth quarter of each year following the release of our financial results for the third quarter. We also may grant awards in connection with significant new hires, promotions or changes in duties.

        Our compensation committee's determinations are not formulaic; rather, in the context of competitive market compensation data and our stated pay philosophy, our compensation committee determines the share amounts on a subjective basis in its discretion and may differ among individual executive officers in any given year. Following is a brief discussion regarding the awards made in 2017.

        Performance-Based Restricted Stock.    In 2017, the proportion of the FNF equity awards consisting of performance-based restricted stock remained at 100% and we did not grant stock options to our executive officers.

        The restricted stock awards vest over three years, provided we achieve pre-tax title margin in our title segment of 8.5% in at least two of the five quarters beginning October 1, 2017. We considered various alternative measures but we again selected adjusted pre-tax title margin because it is one of the most important and impactful measures in evaluating the performance of our core operations, as well as the performance of our executives as it is a measure that executives can directly affect. Adjusted pre-tax title margin measures our achievements in operating efficiency, profitability and capital management. It is also a key measure used by investors and has a significant impact on long-term stock price. We increased the adjusted pre-tax margin performance metric from 8% to 8.5% for these awards

33

because of recent and expected industry and company trends, including a rising interest rate environment, MBA's forecasts with respect to the mortgage originations for 2018 and the Urban Land Institute's forecast for the commercial real estate market in 2018, with the goal of setting a target that reflects superior performance compared to our title competitors. Although we considered using a longer performance period for these awards, we determined that achievement of the criteria in at least two of the five quarters beginning October 1, 2017, which is the performance period we have historically used with respect to our performance-based equity awards, was the appropriate performance period because of the difficulty in predicting future performance of the mortgage market, particularly for a period of more than one year, because it is largely driven by interest rates and other economic forces outside of our control, and because of the seasonality inherent in the title business, with the first quarter typically much weaker than the remaining quarters due to weather conditions and holidays impacting opened order activity in November and December resulting in fewer closings in the first quarter.

        Adjusted pre-tax title margin is determined by dividing the earnings before income taxes and non-controlling interests from our title segment, excluding realized gains and losses, purchase accounting amortization and other unusual items, by total revenues of the title segment excluding realized gains and losses.

        With respect to all restricted stock awards, credit is provided for dividends paid on unvested shares, but payment of those dividends is subject to the same vesting requirements as the underlying shares—in other words, if the underlying shares do not vest, the dividends are forfeited.

Business/Investment Specific Incentives

        The Investment Success Incentive Program.    In connection with the Split-Off, Cannae assumed the Investment Success Incentive Program and we no longer have any obligations under the program.

        The Investment Success Incentive Program was a performance-based cash incentive program that our compensation committee established in 2014 to help us maximize the returns on our investments in One Digital (formerly Digital Insurance) and other investments. Under the program, amounts were earned upon liquidity events that result in a positive return on our investment. For this purpose, return was determined relative to the value of our investment in One Digital as of July 1, 2014, which was $70,800,000. Upon a liquidity event, 10% of any incremental value is contributed to an incentive pool and payments are made to participants based on their allocated percentages of the pool, which are as follows: Mr. Park 2%; and Mr. Bickett 12%. Since Messrs. Quirk, Jewkes and Nolan focus on our core title business and did not focus our FNFV businesses, they did not participate in this program.

        On June 6, 2017, prior to the completion of the Split-Off, FNFV completed the sale of One Digital to Achilles Acquisition LLC. As a result of the sale, FNFV indirectly received $331,301,000, of which $5,365,000 was held in escrow to cover any indemnity claims. This represents $260,501,000 in excess of the $70,800,000 base value of the investment used to measure gain for purposes of the awards. Because of the escrow holdback, our compensation committee, exercising negative discretion, determined to pay only $25,514,000 of the incentive attributable to the sale in 2017, and held back the remaining $536,000 allocated to the incentive pool pending the distribution of the escrowed funds.

        Because the Investment Success Incentive Program was assumed by Cannae in connection with the Split-Off, the $536,000 remaining in the incentive pool may be paid at the discretion of Cannae's compensation committee, and subject to the other conditions to payment contained in the incentive award agreements, such as the requirement that participants must remain employed through the payment date to be entitled to a payment.

Table of Contents

        The following table shows the return on investment relating to the sale of One Digital and the resulting payouts to the named executive officers under the Investment Success Incentive Program.

        In the sale by Ceridian of Comdata to FleetCor in 2014, the sale consideration was paid in shares of FleetCor common stock, with approximately 25% held in escrow to cover any potential indemnity claims, and any remaining escrowed funds payable to Ceridian in annual 1/3 installments over three years. As a result of the sale, we indirectly acquired (through our approximately 32% ownership interest in Ceridian) approximately 2.39 million shares of FleetCor common stock, with 25% of those shares held back in the indemnity escrow. The sale resulted in payments being made under the Investment Success Incentive Program in 2014; however, our compensation committee exercised discretion reserved under the Investment Success Incentive Program and reduced the incentives payable in 2014 by 25%, which we refer to as the Holdback Amount. In accordance with the Investment Success Incentive Program terms, our compensation committee reserved the right to decide whether the Holdback Amount (or a portion of it) would be forfeited or whether it would be paid to the participants at a future date. In November 2016, approximately 50% of the remaining escrow holdback was released from escrow and Cannae distributed approximately 50% of the Holdback Amount remaining after the November 2016 release.

        The following table shows the payments made to our named executive officers in connection with the 2017 release of the Holdback Amount.

Benefit Plans

        We provide retirement and other benefits to our U.S. employees under a number of compensation programs. Our named executive officers generally participate in the same compensation programs as our other executives and employees. All employees in the United States, including our named executive officers, are eligible to participate in our 401(k) plan and our employee stock purchase plan, or ESPP. In addition, our named executive officers are eligible to participate in broad-based health and welfare plans. We do not offer pensions or supplemental executive retirement plans for our named executive officers.

        401(k) Plan.    We sponsor a defined contribution savings plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. The plan contains a cash or deferred arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Participating employees may contribute up to 40% of their eligible compensation, but not more than statutory limits, which were generally $18,000 in 2017. Vesting in matching contributions, if any, occurs proportionally each year over three years based on continued employment with us.

        Deferred Compensation Plan.    We provide our named executive officers, as well as other key employees, with the opportunity to defer receipt of their compensation under a nonqualified deferred compensation plan. None of our named executive officers elected to defer 2017 compensation into the plan. A description of the plan and information regarding our named executive officers' interests under the plan can be found in the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table and accompanying narrative.

Table of Contents

        Employee Stock Purchase Plan.    We maintain an ESPP through which our executives and employees can purchase shares of our common stock through payroll deductions and through matching employer contributions. At the end of each calendar quarter, we make a matching contribution to the account of each participant who has been continuously employed by us or a participating subsidiary for the last four calendar quarters. For officers, including our named executive officers, matching contributions are equal to 1/2 of the amount contributed during the quarter that is one year earlier than the quarter in which the matching contribution was made. The matching contributions, together with the employee deferrals, are used to purchase shares of our common stock on the open market. For information regarding the matching contributions made to our named executive officers in 2017 see "—Summary Compensation Table."

        Health and Welfare Benefits.    We sponsor various broad-based health and welfare benefit plans for our employees. Certain executives, including our named executive officers, are provided with additional life insurance. The taxable portion of the premiums on this additional life insurance is reflected in the "Summary Compensation Table" under the column "All Other Compensation" and related footnote.

        Other Benefits.    We continue to provide a few additional benefits to our executives. In general, the additional benefits provided are intended to help our named executive officers be more productive and efficient and to protect us and our executives from certain business risks and potential threats. For example, in 2017, certain of our named executive officers received personal use of the corporate aircraft. Our compensation committee regularly reviews the additional benefits provided to our executive officers and believes they are minimal. Further detail regarding other benefits in 2017 can be found in the "Summary Compensation Table" under the column "All Other Compensation" and related footnote.

Employment Agreements and Post-Termination Compensation and Benefits

        We have entered into employment agreements with each of our named executive officers. These agreements provide us and the executives with certain rights and obligations following a termination of employment, and in some instances, following a change in control. We believe these agreements are necessary to protect our legitimate business interests, as well as to protect the executives in the event of certain termination events. For a discussion of the material terms of the agreements, see the narrative following "—Grants of Plan-Based Awards" and "—Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control," below.

ROLE OF COMPENSATION COMMITTEE, COMPENSATION CONSULTANT AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

        Our compensation committee is responsible for reviewing, approving and monitoring all compensation programs for our named executive officers. Our compensation committee is also responsible for administering the Fidelity National Financial, Inc. Annual Incentive Plan, or our annual incentive plan, the Fidelity National Financial, Inc. Amended and Restated 2005 Omnibus Incentive Plan, or our omnibus incentive plan, administering programs that are implemented under the omnibus incentive plan and approving individual grants and awards under those plans for our executive officers. During 2017, our compensation committee engaged Mercer (the compensation consultant), an independent compensation consultant, to conduct an annual review of our compensation programs for our named executive officers and other key executives and our board of directors. Mercer was selected, and its fees and terms of engagement were approved, by our compensation committee. Mercer reported directly to the compensation committee, received compensation only for services related to executive compensation issues, and neither it nor any affiliated company provided any other services to us. In April 2018, the compensation committee reviewed the independence of Mercer in accordance with the rules of the New York Stock Exchange regarding the independence of consultants to the compensation committee, and affirmed the consultant's independence and that no conflicts of interest existed.

        The compensation consultant provided our compensation committee with relevant market data on compensation, including annual salary, annual incentives, long-term incentives, other benefits, total compensation and pay mix, and alternatives to consider when making compensation decisions. Mercer also assists our compensation committee in its annual review of a compensation risk assessment.

        Our Chairman, Mr. Foley, participated in the 2017 executive compensation process by making recommendations with respect to the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Quirk, and his direct reports. Mr. Quirk, our Chief Executive Officer, made recommendations with respect to the compensation of his direct reports, as discussed further below. In addition, Michael L. Gravelle, our Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, coordinated with our compensation committee members and the compensation consultant in preparing the committee's meeting agendas and, at the direction of the compensation committee, assisted the compensation consultant in gathering financial information about FNF and stock ownership information for our executives for inclusion in the consultant's reports to our compensation committee. Our executive officers do not make recommendations to our compensation committee with respect to their own compensation.

        While our compensation committee carefully considers the information provided by, and the recommendations of, Mercer and the individuals who participate in the compensation process, our compensation committee retains complete discretion to accept, reject or modify any recommended compensation decisions.

Establishing Executive Compensation Levels

        Our compensation committee considers a number of important qualitative and quantitative factors when determining the overall compensation of our named executive officers in 2017, including:

•

the executive officer's experience, knowledge, skills, level of responsibility and potential to influence our company's performance;



•

the executive officer's prior salary levels, annual incentive awards, annual incentive award targets and long-term equity incentive awards;



•

the business environment and our business objectives and strategy;



•

our financial performance in the prior year;



•

the need to retain and motivate executives (even in the current business cycle, it is critical that we not lose key people and long term incentives help to retain key people);



•

corporate governance and regulatory factors related to executive compensation; and



•

marketplace compensation levels and practices.

        In evaluating the compensation of our named executive officers, our compensation committee also considers the recommendations of our Chairman. Our compensation committee also considers our Chief Executive Officer's recommendations with respect to the compensation of his direct reports. In making their recommendations, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer review the performance of the other named executive officers, job responsibilities, importance to our overall business strategy, and our compensation philosophy. Neither our Chairman nor our Chief Executive Officer makes a recommendation to our compensation committee regarding his own compensation. The compensation decisions are not formulaic, and the members of our compensation committee did not assign precise weights to the factors listed above. Our compensation committee utilized their individual and collective business judgment to review, assess, and approve compensation for our named executive officers.

        To assist our compensation committee, the compensation consultant conducted marketplace reviews of the compensation we pay to our executive officers. They gathered marketplace compensation data on total compensation, which consists of annual salary, annual incentives, long-term incentives, executive benefits, executive ownership levels, overhang and dilution from our omnibus incentive plan, compensation levels as a percent of revenue, pay mix and other key statistics. This data is collected and analyzed twice during the year, once in the first quarter and again in the fourth quarter. The marketplace compensation data provides a point of reference for our compensation committee, but our compensation committee ultimately makes subjective compensation decisions based on all of the factors described above.

        For 2017, Mercer used two marketplace data approaches: (1) an aggregation of three general executive compensation survey with a specific focus on companies with revenues of between $4.5 billion and $18 billion, and (2) compensation information for a group of 19 companies, or the FNF peer group. The FNF peer group was based on a revenue range of ¹/2 to 2 times the projected 2017 revenue for FNF (which at the time was estimated to be $9 billion), industry focus (generally the insurance industry based on Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) Code), nature and complexity of operations, and because they compete with us for business and/or executive talent. The 2017 peer group was consistent with the peer group used by the compensation committee in 2016. When defining the peer group, our compensation committee, working with the compensation consultant, considered the standards used by ISS for identifying peer groups for public companies. The 2017 peer group consisted of:

        The revenue range of these companies at that time was between $5.3 billion and $13.4 billion, with median revenue of approximately $9 billion. This compares to our 2017 revenue estimate at that time of approximately $9 billion. The compensation committee primarily focused on a reasonable range around the 50^th percentile of the data when considering our named executive officers' 2017 base salaries, annual performance-based cash incentives and long-term equity incentives.

        While the compensation decisions of our compensation committee ultimately were subjective judgments, our compensation committee also considered the following factors in making compensation decisions for our named executive officers. In determining the total compensation for Mr. Quirk, our compensation committee considered his more than 33 years of experience with FNF working in the title business and his importance to the continued successful operation of FNF's title business. In determining the total compensation for Mr. Park, our compensation committee considered his role and responsibility for accounting and financial reporting matters, as well as his 27 years of experience with FNF. In determining the total compensation for Mr. Bickett, our compensation committee considered his contribution to corporate finance matters, corporate development and mergers and acquisitions, as

38

well as his 19 years of experience with FNF. In determining the total compensation for Mr. Jewkes, our compensation committee considered his role and responsibility for oversight of our day-to-day title operations, as well as his 31 years of experience with FNF and its predecessor companies. In determining the total compensation for Mr. Nolan, our compensation committee considered his role and responsibility for oversight of our title operations, his involvement in our investor relations, as well as his 35 years of experience with FNF.

        The marketplace compensation information in this discussion is not deemed filed or a part of this compensation discussion and analysis for certification purposes.

OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS HAVE SIGNIFICANT OWNERSHIP STAKES

        Our named executive officers and our board of directors maintain significant long-term investments in our company. Collectively, as reported in the table "Security Ownership of Management and Directors," they beneficially own an aggregate of 10,794,224 shares of our common stock and options to acquire an additional 4,976,008 shares of our common stock, which in total is equal to 5.7% of our shares entitled to vote. The fact that our executives and directors hold such a large investment in our shares is part of our company culture and our compensation philosophy. Management's sizable investment in our shares aligns their economic interests directly with the interests of our shareholders, and their wealth will rise and fall as our share price rises and falls. This promotes teamwork among our management team and strengthens the team's focus on achieving long term results and increasing shareholder return.

        We have formal stock ownership guidelines for all corporate officers, including our named executive officers, and members of our board of directors. The guidelines were established to encourage such individuals to hold a multiple of their base salary (or annual retainer) in our common stock and, thereby, align a significant portion of their own economic interests with those of our shareholders. Further, the award agreements for our 2017 restricted stock awards provide that our executives who do not hold shares of our stock with a value sufficient to satisfy the applicable stock ownership guidelines must retain 50% of the shares acquired as a result of the lapse of vesting restrictions until the executive satisfies the applicable stock ownership guideline. The ownership levels are shown in the "Security Ownership of Management and Directors" table above.

        The guidelines call for the executive to reach the ownership multiple within four years. Shares of restricted stock and gain on stock options count toward meeting the guidelines. The guidelines, including those applicable to members of our board of directors, are as follows:

        Each of our named executive officers and non-employee directors met these stock ownership guidelines as of December 31, 2017.

HEDGING AND PLEDGING POLICY

        In order to more closely align the interests of our directors and executive officers with those of our shareholders and to protect against inappropriate risk taking, we maintain a hedging and pledging policy, which prohibits our executive officers and directors from engaging in hedging or monetization

39

Table of Contents

transactions with respect to our securities, engaging in short-term or speculative transactions in our securities that could create heightened legal risk and/or the appearance of improper or inappropriate conduct or holding FNF securities in margin accounts or pledging them as collateral for loans without our approval.

CLAWBACK POLICY

        In December 2010, our compensation committee adopted a policy to recover any incentive-based compensation from our executive officers if we are required to prepare an accounting restatement due to material noncompliance with financial reporting requirements, and the incentive-based compensation paid during the preceding three-year period would have been lower had the compensation been based on the restated financial results.

TAX AND ACCOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS

        Our compensation committee considers the impact of tax and accounting treatment when determining executive compensation.

        Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code places a limit of $1,000,000 on the amount that can be deducted in any one year for compensation paid to certain executive officers. Before being repealed by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in 2017, there was an exception for certain performance-based compensation. Our compensation committee took the deduction limitation under Section 162(m) into account when structuring and approving awards under our annual incentive plan and our omnibus plan in 2017, and designed our named executive officers' annual incentives and restricted stock awards with the intention that they would qualify for the performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m). However, there are uncertainties as to the application of Section 162(m), making it possible that a deduction relating to amounts intended to qualify as performance-based compensation may be challenged or disallowed. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act eliminated the performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m) for awards that are not grandfathered and it increased the coverage of Section 162(m) to, among other things, include Chief Financial Officers. These changes will cause more of our named executive officer's compensation to be non-deductible under Section 162(m) in the future, and eliminate our ability to structure performance-based awards to be exempt from Section 162(m). We will continue to monitor developments under Section 162(m).

        Our compensation committee also considers the accounting impact when structuring and approving awards. We account for share-based payments, including stock option grants, in accordance with ASC Topic 718, which governs the appropriate accounting treatment of share-based payments under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

        The compensation committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis required by Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K with management, and the compensation committee recommended to the board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement.

        Mr. Jewkes' employment agreement contains provisions related to the payment of benefits upon certain termination events. The details of these provisions are set forth in the "Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control" section.

Annual Incentive Awards

        In 2017, our compensation committee approved performance-based cash incentive award opportunities for our named executive officers. The performance-based cash incentive award opportunities are calculated by multiplying base salary by the named executive officer's applicable percentage approved by our compensation committee based on the level of performance that we achieved. More information about the annual incentive awards, including the targets and criteria for determining the amounts payable to our named executive officers, can be found in the "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" section.

Long Term Equity Incentive Awards

        In October 2017, our compensation committee approved grants of performance-based restricted stock to all our named executive officers. The performance element applicable to the performance-based restricted stock is based upon achievement of pre-tax margin in our title segment of 8.5% in at least two of the five quarters beginning October 1, 2017. The restricted stock also vests proportionately each year over three years based on continued employment with us. More information about the long term equity incentive awards can be found in the "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" section.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

        Under our nonqualified deferred compensation plan, which was amended and restated effective January 1, 2009, participants, including our named executive officers, can defer up to 75% of their base salary and 100% of their monthly, quarterly and annual incentives, subject to a minimum deferral of $18,000. Deferral elections are made during specified enrollment periods. Deferrals and related earnings are not subject to vesting conditions.

        Participants' accounts are bookkeeping entries only and participants' benefits are unsecured. Participants' accounts are credited or debited daily based on the performance of hypothetical investments selected by the participant, and may be changed on any business day.

        Upon retirement, which generally means separation of employment after attaining age 60, an individual may elect either a lump-sum withdrawal or installment payments over 5, 10 or 15 years. Similar payment elections are available for pre-retirement survivor benefits. In the event of a termination prior to retirement, distributions are paid over a 5-year period. Account balances less than the applicable Internal Revenue Code Section 402(g) limit will be distributed in a lump-sum. Participants can elect to receive in-service distributions in a plan year designated by the participant and these amounts will be paid within two and one-half months from the close of the plan year in which they were elected to be paid. The participant may also petition us to suspend elected deferrals, and to receive partial or full payout under the plan, in the event of an unforeseeable financial emergency, provided that the participant does not have other resources to meet the hardship.

        Plan participation continues until termination of employment. Participants will receive their account balance in a lump-sum distribution if employment is terminated within two years after a change in control.

        In 2004, Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code was passed. Section 409A changed the tax laws applicable to nonqualified deferred compensation plans, generally placing more restrictions on the

47

---

Table of Contents

timing of deferrals and distributions. The deferred compensation plan contains amounts deferred before and after the passage of Section 409A.

        For amounts subject to Section 409A, which in general terms includes amounts deferred after December 31, 2004, a modification to a participant's payment elections may be made upon the following events:

•

Retirement: Participants may modify the distribution schedule for a retirement distribution from a lump-sum to annual installments or vice versa, however, a modification to the form of payment requires that the payment(s) commence at least five years after the participant's retirement, and this election must be filed with the administrator at least 12 months prior to retirement.



•

In-service Distributions: Participants may modify each in-service distribution date by extending it by at least five years; however, participants may not accelerate the in-service distribution date and this election must be filed with the administrator at least 12 months prior to the scheduled in-service distribution date.

        Deferral amounts that were vested on or before December 31, 2004 are generally not subject to Section 409A and are governed by more liberal distribution provisions that were in effect prior to the passage of Section 409A. For example, a participant may withdraw these grandfathered amounts at any time, subject to a withdrawal penalty of ten percent, or may change the payment elections for these grandfathered amounts if notice is timely provided.

        The table below describes the contributions and distributions made with respect to the named executive officers' accounts under our nonqualified deferred compensation plan. None of the named executive officers deferred 2017 compensation under the plan. Messrs. Quirk, Jewkes and Nolan do not have balances in the nonqualified deferred compensation plan.

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control

        In this section, we discuss the nature and estimated value of payments and benefits we would provide to our named executive officers in the event of termination of employment or a change in control. The amounts described in this section reflect amounts that would have been payable under (i) our plans, and (ii) where applicable, their employment agreements if their employment had terminated on December 31, 2017.

        The types of termination situations include a voluntary termination by the executive, with or without good reason, a termination by us either for cause or not for cause and termination in the event of disability or death. We also describe the estimated payments and benefits that would be provided upon a change in control without a termination of employment. The actual payments and benefits that would be provided upon a termination of employment would be based on the named executive officers' compensation and benefit levels at the time of the termination of employment and the value of accelerated vesting of share-based awards would be dependent on the value of the underlying stock.

        For each type of employment termination, the named executive officers would be entitled to benefits that are available generally to our domestic salaried employees, such as distributions under our 401(k) savings plan, certain disability benefits and accrued vacation. We have not described or provided an estimate of the value of any payments or benefits under plans or arrangements that do not discriminate in scope, terms or operation in favor of a named executive officer and that are generally

48

Table of Contents

available to all salaried employees. In addition to these generally available plans and arrangements, the named executive officers would be entitled to benefits under our nonqualified deferred compensation plan, as described above in the "Nonqualified Deferred Compensation" table and accompanying narrative.

Potential Payments under Employment Agreements

        As discussed above, we have entered into employment or service agreements with our named executive officers. The agreements contain provisions for the payment of severance benefits following certain termination events. Below is a summary of the payments and benefits that the named executive officers would receive in connection with various employment or service termination scenarios.

        Under the terms of each agreement, if the executive's employment is terminated by us for any reason other than for cause and not due to death or disability, or by the executive for good reason then the executive is entitled to receive:

•

any accrued obligations,



•

a prorated annual incentive based on the actual incentive the named executive officer would have earned for the year of termination,



•

in the case of Messrs. Quirk, Park and Bickett, a lump-sum payment equal to 200% of the sum of the executive's (a) annual base salary and (b) the highest annual bonus paid to the executive within the three years preceding his termination or, if higher, the target bonus opportunity in the year in which the termination of employment occurs,



•

in the case of Messrs. Jewkes and Nolan, a lump-sum payment equal to 100% of the sum of the executive's (a) annual base salary and (b) the target bonus opportunity in the year in which the termination of employment occurs,



•

immediate vesting and/or payment of all equity awards (except performance-based awards, which vest pursuant to the terms of the awards),



•

the right to convert any life insurance provided by us into an individual policy, plus a lump sum cash payment equal to 36 months (18 months in the case of Messrs. Jewkes and Nolan) of premiums, and



•

other COBRA coverage (so long as the executive pays the premiums) for a period of three years (18 months in the case of Messrs. Jewkes and Nolan) or, if earlier, until eligible for comparable benefits from another employer, plus a lump sum cash payment equal to the sum of 36 (18 in the case of Messrs. Jewkes and Nolan) monthly COBRA premium payments.

        Under the terms of each agreement, if the executive's employment or service terminates due to death or disability then the executive (or his estate) is entitled to receive:

•

any accrued obligations,



•

a prorated annual bonus based on (a) the target annual bonus opportunity in the year in which the termination occurs or the prior year if no target annual bonus opportunity has yet been determined and (b) the fraction of the year the executive was employed, and



•

immediate vesting and/or payment of all equity awards.

        In addition, Messrs. Quirk's and Park's employment agreements provide for supplemental disability insurance sufficient to provide at least 2/3 of the executive's pre-disability base salary. Mr. Bickett is entitled to purchase supplemental disability insurance sufficient to provide 60% of his pre-disability base salary. For purposes of the agreements, an executive will be deemed to have a "disability" if he is entitled to receive long-term disability benefits under our long-term disability plan.

Table of Contents

        If the executive's employment or service is terminated by us for cause or by the executive without good reason our only obligation is the payment of any accrued obligations.

        For purposes of each agreement, "cause" means the executive's:

•

persistent failure to perform duties consistent with a commercially reasonable standard of care,



•

willful neglect of duties,



•

conviction of, or pleading nolo contendere to, criminal or other illegal activities involving dishonesty,



•

material breach of the employment or service agreement, or



•

impeding or failing to materially cooperate with an investigation authorized by our board.

        For purposes of Messrs. Quirk's, Park's and Bickett's agreements, "good reason" includes:

•

a material diminution in the executive's position or title or the assignment of duties to the executive that are materially inconsistent with the executive's position or title,



•

a material diminution of the executive's base salary or annual bonus opportunity,



•

within six months immediately preceding or within two years immediately following a change in control, (1) a material adverse change in the executive's status, authority or responsibility, (2) a material adverse change in the position to whom the executive reports or to the executive's service relationship as a result of such reporting structure change, or a material diminution in the authority, duties or responsibilities of the position to whom the executive reports, (3) a material diminution in the budget over which the executive has managing authority, or (4) a material change in the geographic location of the executive's place of employment, or



•

our material breach of any of our obligations under the employment agreement.

        For purposes of Messrs. Quirk's, Park's, and Bickett's agreements, a "change in control" means:

•

an acquisition by an individual, entity or group of more than 50% of our voting power,



•

a merger in which we are not the surviving entity, unless our shareholders immediately prior to the merger hold more than 50% of the combined voting power of the resulting corporation after the merger,



•

a reverse merger in which we are the surviving entity but in which more than 50% of the combined voting power is transferred to persons different from those holding the securities immediately prior to such merger,



•

Potential Payments under FNF Omnibus Incentive Plan

        In addition to the post-termination rights and obligations set forth in the employment agreements of our named executive officers, our omnibus incentive plan provides for the potential acceleration of vesting and/or payment of equity awards in connection with a change in control. Under our omnibus incentive plan, except as otherwise provided in a participant's award agreement, upon the occurrence of a change in control any and all outstanding options and stock appreciation rights will become immediately exercisable, any restriction imposed on restricted stock, restricted stock units and other awards will lapse, and any and all performance shares, performance units and other awards with performance conditions will be deemed earned at the target level, or, if no target level is specified, the maximum level.

        For purposes of our omnibus plan, the term "change in control" means the occurrence of any of the following events:

•

an acquisition by an individual, entity or group of 25% or more of our voting power (except for acquisitions by us or any of our employee benefit plans),



•

during any period of two consecutive years, a change in the majority of our board, unless the change is approved by 2/3 of the directors then in office,



•

a reorganization, merger, share exchange, consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of our assets; excluding, however, a transaction pursuant to which we retain specified levels of stock ownership and board seats, or



•

our shareholders approve a plan or proposal for our liquidation or dissolution.

Estimated Cash Payments upon Termination of Employment

        Our estimate of the cash severance amounts that would be provided to the named executive officers assumes that their employment terminated on December 31, 2017. The severance amounts do not include a prorated 2017 annual incentive since the named executive officers would have been paid based on their service through the end of the year and therefore would have received the amount whether or not the termination occurred. For a termination of employment by us for any reason other than cause or a termination by the executive for good reason, the following payments would have been made under the agreements: Mr. Quirk $8,144,364; Mr. Park $3,339,157; Mr. Nolan $2,355,800; Mr. Bickett $4,594,359; and Mr. Jewkes $2,415,704.

        For a termination of employment due to death or disability, none of the named executive officers would be entitled to severance or enhanced payments or benefits.

Estimated Equity Payments upon Termination of Employment or Change in Control

        As disclosed in the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End tables, each named executive officer had outstanding unvested stock options and restricted stock awards on December 31, 2017. Under the terms of our omnibus plan and award agreements, these stock options and restricted stock awards would vest upon a change in control and would vest as to a pro-rated portion upon termination for death or disability. In addition, under the named executive officers' employment agreements, these stock options and restricted stock awards would vest upon a termination due to death or disability, and the portion of these stock options and restricted stock awards that vest based solely on the passage of time would vest upon any termination of employment by us not for cause or a termination by the executive for good reason. In any other termination event, all unvested stock options and restricted stock awards would expire at the employment termination date.

        The following estimates are based on a common stock price of $39.24 per share which was the closing price of our common stock on December 29, 2017. The stock option amounts reflect the excess

51

---

Table of Contents

of this share price over the exercise price of the unvested stock options that would vest. The restricted stock amounts were determined by multiplying the number of shares that would vest by the applicable closing price. Our estimate of the value of equity that would vest assumes that a change in control and, as applicable, a termination of employment occurred on December 31, 2017.

        The estimated value of the stock options held by the named executive officers that would vest upon a change in control or upon a termination of the named executive officers' employment by us not for cause, including a termination due to death or disability, or a termination by the executives for good reason would be as follows: Mr. Quirk $1,372,275; Mr. Park $311,875; Mr. Nolan $530,193; Mr. Bickett $561,383; and Mr. Jewkes $467,826.

        The estimated value of restricted stock awards (including accumulated dividends) held by the named executive officers that would vest upon a change in control would be as follows: Mr. Quirk $10,884,357; Mr. Park $2,800,055; Mr. Nolan $4,490,537; Mr. Bickett $3,877,762; and Mr. Jewkes $3,958,072. The estimated value of restricted stock awards (including accumulated dividends) held by the named executive officers that would vest upon a termination of the named executive officers' employment by us not for cause or a termination by the named executive officers for good reason would be as follows: Mr. Quirk $5,912,379; Mr. Park $1,559,995; Mr. Nolan $2,574,065; Mr. Bickett $2,169,231; and Mr. Jewkes $2,267,084. The estimated value of the restricted stock awards (including accumulated dividends) held by the named executive officers that would vest upon a termination of the named executive officers' employment due to death or disability would be as follows: Mr. Quirk $10,884,357; Mr. Park $2,800,055; Mr. Nolan $4,490,537; Mr. Bickett $3,877,762; and Mr. Jewkes $3,958,072.

        In connection with certain change in control transactions, our named executive officers may require ServiceLink to purchase their ServiceLink profits interest awards for an amount equal to the fair market value of the interests. For this purpose, a change in control would include an acquisition of more than 50% of the combined voting power of the stock of Black Knight or a sale of all or substantially all of Black Knight's or our assets.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

        The compensation committee is currently composed of Richard N. Massey (Chair), Cary H. Thompson, and Daniel D. (Ron) Lane. During fiscal year 2017, no member of the compensation committee was a former or current officer or employee of FNF or any of its subsidiaries. In addition, during fiscal year 2017, none of our executive officers served (i) as a member of the compensation committee or board of directors of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on our compensation committee, or (ii) as a member of the compensation committee of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on our board.

Discussion of Our Compensation Policies and Practices as They Relate to Risk Management

        We reviewed our compensation policies and programs for all employees, including our named executive officers, and determined that our compensation programs are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our company. In conducting the analysis, we reviewed the structure of our executive, non-officer and sales commission incentive programs and the internal controls and risk abatement processes that are in place for each program. We also reviewed data compiled across our direct title operations, agency title operations, ServiceLink, and corporate operations relative to total revenue, total profits, total compensation expenses and incentive program expenses (including as a percentage of both revenue and total compensation expenses).

        We believe that several design features of our executive compensation programs mitigate risk. We set base salaries at levels that provide our employees with assured cash compensation that is appropriate to their job duties and level of responsibility and that, when taken together with incentive

52

Table of Contents

awards, motivate them to perform at a high level without encouraging inappropriate risk taking to achieve a reasonable level of secure compensation.

        With respect to our executives' incentive opportunities, we believe that our use of measurable corporate financial performance goals, multiple performance levels and minimum, target and maximum achievable payouts, together with the compensation committee's discretion to reduce awards, serve to mitigate excessive risk-taking. The risk of overstatement of financial figures to which incentives are tied is mitigated by the compensation committee's review and approval of the awards and payments under the awards, our ability to recover any incentive-based compensation pursuant to our clawback policy and the internal and external review of our financials. We also believe that our balance of stock options and restricted stock and use of multi-year vesting schedules in our long-term incentive awards encourages recipients to deliver incremental value to our shareholders and aligns their interests with our sustainable long-term performance, thereby mitigating risk. In addition, in 2009 we increased required stock ownership multiples for some executives and included stock retention requirements in our restricted stock awards, both of which help to align our executives' interests with our long-term performance and mitigate risk.

        With respect to our non-officer incentive program, we believe that our use of clearly communicated performance goals and close monitoring by our corporate accounting group, corporate underwriting group and senior management serve to mitigate excessive risk-taking. Our sales commission incentive program is based on revenue generation, which is critical to our performance. We have controls in place that mitigate the risk that transactions might be recommended or executed to earn short-term, commission-based incentive compensation, including operational management oversight and approval, management reporting, and detailed underwriting guidelines and approval escalation.

2017 CEO Pay Ratio

        As required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, we are providing the following information about the relationship of the annual total compensation of our CEO and the annual total compensation of our employees for 2017, which we refer to as the CEO pay ratio. Our CEO pay ratio information is a reasonable good faith estimate calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K.

        The ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO, calculated as described above, to the median of the annual total compensation of all employees for 2017 was 174 to 1. This ratio was based on the following:

•

the annual total compensation of our CEO, determined as described above, was $8,961,216; and



•

the median of the annual total compensation of all employees (other than our CEO), determined in accordance with SEC rules, was $51,464.

        Methodology for Determining Our Median Employee.    For purposes of the above CEO pay ratio disclosure, we are required to identify a median employee based on our worldwide workforce, without regard to their location, compensation arrangements, or employment status (full-time versus part-time). The median employee is determined by identifying the employee whose compensation is at the median of the compensation of our employee population (other than our CEO). Accordingly, to identify the median of the compensation of our employee population, the methodology and the material assumptions and estimates that we used were as follows:

        Employee Population.    We determined that, as of November 30, 2017, the date we selected to identify the median employee, our total global employee population consisted of approximately 26,600 individuals working for FNF.

53

Table of Contents

        Compensation Measure Used to Identify the Median Employee.    Given the geographical distribution of our employee population, we use a variety of pay elements to structure the compensation arrangements of our employees. Consequently, for purposes of measuring the compensation of our employees to identify the median employee, rather than using annual total compensation, we selected base salary/wages and overtime pay, plus paid incentive bonus through November 30, 2017 as the compensation measure.

•

We annualized the compensation of employees to cover the full calendar year, and also annualized any new hires in 2017 as if they were hired at the beginning of the fiscal year, as permitted by SEC rules, in identifying the median employee.



•

We did not make any cost-of-living adjustments in identifying the median employee.



•

Using this methodology, we estimated that the median employee was an employee with base salary/wages and overtime pay plus paid incentive bonus for the year ended December 31, 2017 of $51,323.

        Annual Total Compensation of Median Employee.    In order to determine the annual total compensation of the median employee, we identified and calculated the elements of that employee's compensation for 2017 in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K, resulting in annual total compensation in the amount of $51,464.

        Annual Total Compensation of Chief Executive Officer.    With respect to the annual total compensation of our CEO, in accordance with SEC rules, we included the amount reported for Mr. Quirk in the "Total" column for 2017 in the Summary Compensation Table included in this proxy statement.

Director Compensation

Compensation of our Chairman

        William P. Foley, II serves as non-executive Chairman of the Board, and we have entered into a non-executive director services agreement with him on January 8, 2016. In determining the total compensation for Mr. Foley we considered his ongoing role as non-executive Chairman for developing and implementing our long-term strategy and investments, particularly in light of his substantial knowledge of our operations as our founder and a long-time executive.

        In 2017, pursuant to his director services agreement, Mr. Foley received an annual board retainer of $390,000 for his services relating to FNF and $390,000 for his services relating to FNFV and a long-term incentive award of 18,843 restricted shares for his board duties.

        Prior to the Split-Off, Mr. Foley also received a payment of $18,114,690 in connection with the sale of One Digital and a payment of $1,014,000 from Cannae in connection with the release of escrow proceeds related to the sale by Ceridian of Comdata to FleetCor in 2014 under the Investment Success Incentive Program discussed above, which only pays out under a predetermined formula based on liquidity, monetization and similar events where the returns can be objectively determined. As a result of the sale of OneDigital, FNFV's shareholders indirectly received $260,501,000 in excess of the $70,800,000 base value of the investment used to measure gain for purposes of the awards. Mr. Foley's payment reflects his allocated 71% of the 10% incentive pool, less the held back amount relating to the pending distribution of escrowed funds. Mr. Foley's Comdata escrow payment reflects his allocated 65% of the remaining Holdback Amount. The Investment Success Incentive Program was assumed by Cannae in connection with the Split-Off, and we will make no further payments to Mr. Foley with respect to that plan.

        We entered into a non-executive director services agreement with Mr. Foley on January 8, 2016. The agreement provides that Mr. Foley will receive an annual retainer of $780,000. The agreement

54

Table of Contents

provides that Mr. Foley and his eligible dependents are entitled to medical and other insurance coverage we provide to our other top executives as a group and that Mr. Foley is entitled to continued use of our aircraft. Mr. Foley is also entitled to receive equity grants under our equity incentive plans, as determined by our compensation committee, with the grant date fair value of the annual grant being at least $600,000.

        Under the terms of Mr. Foley's agreement, if his service is terminated by us for any reason other than for cause, due to death or disability, by him for good reason or if he is not nominated to run for re-election as chairman of the board, is nominated, but does not receive enough votes to be re-elected to the board, or is removed as chairman of the board for reasons other than cause, then he is entitled to receive:

•

any accrued obligations, and



•

immediate vesting and/or payment of all our equity awards.

        If we terminate Mr. Foley's service for cause or he resigns without good reason our only obligation is the payment of any accrued obligations.

        For purposes of Mr. Foley's agreement, "Cause" means Mr. Foley's:

•

persistent failure to perform duties consistent with a commercially reasonable standard of care,



•

willful neglect of duties,



•

conviction of, or pleading nolo contendere to, criminal or other illegal activities involving dishonesty,



•

material breach of the employment or service agreement, or



•

impeding or failing to materially cooperate with an investigation authorized by our board.

        For purposes of Mr. Foley's agreement, "good reason" includes:

•

a material diminution in his position or title or the assignment of duties to him that are materially inconsistent with his position or title,



•

a material diminution of his annual retainer,



•

within six months immediately preceding or within two years immediately following a change in control, (1) a material adverse change in this status, authority or responsibility, (2) a material adverse change in the position to whom he reports or to his service relationship as a result of such reporting structure change, or a material diminution in the authority, duties or responsibilities of the position to whom he reports,



•

our material breach of any of our obligations under the employment agreement, or



•

election of a new director to the board of directors who he did not consent to or vote for.

        For purposes of Mr. Foley's agreement, a "change in control" means:

•

an acquisition by an individual, entity or group of more than 50% of our voting power,



•

a merger in which we are not the surviving entity, unless our shareholders immediately prior to the merger hold more than 50% of the combined voting power of the resulting corporation after the merger,



•

a reverse merger in which we are the surviving entity but in which more than 50% of the combined voting power is transferred to persons different from those holding the securities immediately prior to such merger,

55

•

during any period of two consecutive years during the employment term, a change in the majority of our board, unless the changes are approved by 2/3 of the directors then in office,



•

a sale, transfer or other disposition of our assets that have a total fair market value equal to or more than 1/3 of the total fair market value of all of our assets immediately before the sale, transfer or disposition, other than a sale, transfer or disposition to an entity (1) which immediately after the sale, transfer or disposition owns 50% of our voting stock or (2) 50% of the voting stock of which is owned by us after the sale, transfer or disposition, or our shareholders approve a plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of our company.

        Mr. Foley remains the Executive Chairman of Black Knight's Board of Directors. The compensation paid by Black Knight to Mr. Foley for his service as Executive Chairman of Black Knight prior to the Spin-Off is included in these discussions and the tables that follow because FNF owned a majority of Black Knight's outstanding stock through September 29, 2017, when the Spin-Off was completed. Mr. Foley received salary of $461,538 paid by Black Knight for his service as executive chairman of the Black Knight board through the date of the Black Knight Spin-Off. Mr. Foley also received a long-term incentive award of 203,160 restricted shares of Black Knight, which vest proportionately each year over three years from the date of grant based upon continued service on New Black Knight's board, subject to the achievement of performance-based criteria.

        As shown in the table below, which reflect the compensation earned by Mr. Foley as (1) non-executive Chairman of FNF, (2) under the Investment Success Incentive Program with respect to services provided to FNFV, and (3) as Executive Chairman of Black Knight, only approximately 4% of Mr. Foley's compensation disclosed in the discussion above and tables that follow was earned in his role as non-executive Chairman of FNF with the remaining 96% earned under the Investment Success Incentive Program and with respect to services provided to FNFV and Cannae and as Executive Chairman of Black Knight. Compensation earned by Mr. Foley as non-executive chairman of FNF represents 15% of the total compensation earned by our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Quirk, in 2017 as reported in the Summary Compensation Table. Details relating to the compensation Mr. Foley earned as Executive Chairman of Black Knight can be found in Black Knight's Annual Proxy Statement for its 2018 annual meeting of shareholders.

Compensation of our Other Directors

        Mr. Quirk, who is a salaried employee, receives no additional compensation for services as a member of our board. In 2017, all non-employee directors other than Mr. Foley received an annual retainer of $80,000, payable quarterly. The chairman and each member of the audit committee received an additional annual fee (payable in quarterly installments) of $100,000 and $35,000, respectively, for their service on the audit committee. The chairman and each member of the compensation committee received an additional annual fee (payable in quarterly installments) of $25,000 and $15,000, respectively, for their service on such committees. The chairman and each member of the corporate governance and nominating committee received an additional annual fee (payable in quarterly installments) of $20,000 and $10,000, respectively, for their service on such committees. Mr. Massey, who serves as our Lead Independent Director, does not receive any additional compensation for that role. In addition, in 2017 each non-employee director received a long-term incentive award of 5,787 restricted shares. These restricted share awards were granted under our omnibus plan and vest proportionately each year over three years from the date of grant based upon continued service on our board, subject to the achievement of performance-based criteria. In addition, Ms. Murren received a new director award of 4,961 restricted shares in connection with joining our board. We also reimburse each non-employee director for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attendance at board and committee meetings and director education programs. Finally, each non-employee member of our board is eligible to participate in our deferred compensation plan to the extent he or she elects to defer any board or committee fees. Mr. Ammerman deferred the fees he earned in 2017 for his services as a director and the chairman of the audit committee.

        In addition, Messrs. Hagerty, Massey and Rood serve as non-employee directors of Black Knight and, in 2017 prior to the Black Knight Spin-Off, received an annual retainer of $60,000, payable quarterly, plus $2,000 for each board meeting attended in 2017. Mr. Rood received an additional annual fee (payable in quarterly installments) of $25,000 for his service on the Black Knight audit committee and $15,000 for his service on the risk committee, plus a fee of $1,500 for each audit committee and risk committee meeting attended in 2017 prior to the Black Knight Spin-Off. Messrs. Massey and Hagerty received an additional annual fee (payable in quarterly installments) of $15,000 and $10,000, respectively, for their service on the Black Knight compensation committee, plus a fee of $1,500 for each compensation committee meeting attended in 2017 prior to the Black Knight Spin-Off. Mr. Hagerty also received an annual fee of $10,000 for his service on the Black Knight nominating and corporate governance committee plus a fee of $1,500 for each nominating and corporate governance committee meeting attended in 2017 prior to the Black Knight Spin-Off.

        Mr. Rood received an additional retainer of $10,000 for his services on the ServiceLink audit and risk committees. Mr. Foley no longer receives cash compensation or benefits for his services as Chairman of ServiceLink.

PROPOSAL NO. 2: ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

        In accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act and Rule 14a-21(a) promulgated thereunder, we are asking our shareholders to approve, in a non-binding advisory vote, the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K.

        We believe that our compensation programs are structured to appropriately balance guaranteed base salary and performance-based at-risk annual and long-term incentives so as to incent our executives to drive strong short- and long-term performance while providing enough ensured annual compensation in the form of base salary to discourage excessive risk taking. We believe that the success of this approach is evidenced by our strong operating results. In 2017, we generated approximately $7.7 billion in total revenue (a 5.6% increase from 2016), and approximately $771 million in net earnings (an 18.6% increase from 2016). As reflected in the charts below, from 2015 through 2017, we have delivered strong growth in total revenue and net earnings.

        During this three year period, from January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2017, we delivered a total return to our shareholders of 60.1%, compared to S&P 500 total return of 36.6% during the same period. This includes a return of approximately $278 million to our shareholders in the form of cash dividends. Total shareholder return is based on stock price changes as adjusted to account for the Black Knight Spin-Off in 2017 (assuming that the underlying shares were sold on the spin-off closing date) and cash dividends paid.

        We currently hold our "say on pay" vote every year. A majority of our shareholders approved our "say on pay" proposal in 2017, with approximately 70% of the votes cast in favor of the proposal and approximately 30% of the votes cast against the proposal.

Table of Contents

        Our compensation committee is committed to hearing and responding to the views of our shareholders in creating and tailoring our executive compensation programs. Following the 2017 annual meeting of shareholders, our compensation committee instructed management to continue to engage in extensive shareholder outreach so they could better understand and respond to the concerns of our shareholders, including with respect to our compensation programs. This shareholder outreach plan is described in detail in the "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" section of this proxy statement.

        We urge our shareholders to read the "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" section of this proxy statement, which describes in detail our compensation philosophy and how our compensation programs operate and are designed to achieve our business and compensation objectives, as well as the "Summary Compensation Table" and other related compensation tables and disclosures, which provide detailed information on the compensation of our named executive officers.

        We ask our shareholders to vote on the following resolution at the annual meeting:

"RESOLVED, that the Company's shareholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers, as disclosed in the Company's Proxy Statement for the 2018 Annual Meeting of Shareholders pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and Executive and Director Compensation section, the compensation tables and related narrative."

        The vote on this resolution is not intended to address any specific element of compensation; rather, the vote relates to the compensation of our named executive officers, as described in this proxy statement in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Approval of this resolution requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote. However, as this is an advisory vote, the results will not be binding on the Company, the board or the compensation committee, and will not require us to take any action. The final decision on the compensation of our named executive officers remains with our compensation committee and the board, although the compensation committee and the board will consider the outcome of this vote when making compensation decisions.

        THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE APPROVAL, ON AN ADVISORY BASIS, OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, AS DISCLOSED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT.

PROPOSAL NO. 3: RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT
REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

General Information About Ernst & Young LLP

        Although shareholder ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm is not required by our bylaws or otherwise, we are submitting the selection of EY LLP to our shareholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate governance practice. Even if the selection is ratified, our audit committee in its discretion may select a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders. If our shareholders do not ratify the audit committee's selection, the audit committee will take that fact into consideration, together with such other factors it deems relevant, in determining its next selection of independent registered public accounting firm.

        In choosing our independent registered public accounting firm, our audit committee conducts a comprehensive review of the qualifications of those individuals who will lead and serve on the engagement team, the quality control procedures the firm has established, and any issue raised by the most recent quality control review of the firm. The review also includes matters required to be considered under the Securities and Exchange Commission rules on "Auditor Independence," including

the nature and extent of non-audit services to ensure that they will not impair the independence of the accountants.

        Representatives of EY are expected to be present at the annual meeting. These representatives will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Principal Accountant Fees and Services

        The audit committee has appointed EY to audit the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the 2018 fiscal year. EY has continuously acted as our independent registered public accounting firm since August 2, 2017. As discussed below, EY was engaged by our audit committee following a comprehensive, competitive process to determine the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the Company's 2017 fiscal year.

        For services rendered to us during or in connection with our year ended December 31, 2017, we were billed the following fees by EY:

        Prior to engaging EY, KPMG LLP had served as our independent registered public accounting firm since the fiscal year ending December 31, 1988. For services rendered to us during or in connection with our years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we were billed the following fees by KPMG LLP:

        Audit Fees.    Audit fees consisted principally of fees for the audits, registration statements and other filings related to the Company's 2017 and 2016 financial statements, and audits of the Company's subsidiaries required for regulatory reporting purposes, including billings for out of pocket expenses incurred.

        Audit-Related Fees.    Audit-related fees in 2017 and 2016 consisted principally of fees for Service Organization Control Reports.

        Tax Fees.    Tax fees for 2017 and 2016 consisted principally of fees for tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice.

        All Other Fees.    All other fees relate primarily to services provided for regulatory inspection readiness assessments.

Approval of Accountants' Services

        In accordance with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, all audit and audit-related work and all non-audit work performed by KPMG LLP is approved in advance by the audit committee,

including the proposed fees for such work. Our pre-approval policy provides that, unless a type of service to be provided by EY has been generally pre-approved by the audit committee, it will require specific pre-approval by the audit committee. In addition, any proposed services exceeding pre-approved maximum fee amounts also require pre-approval by the audit committee. Our pre-approval policy provides that specific pre-approval authority is delegated to our audit committee chairman, provided that the estimated fee for the proposed service does not exceed a pre-approved maximum amount set by the committee. Our audit committee chairman must report any pre-approval decisions to the audit committee at its next scheduled meeting.

Change in Auditor

        As previously disclosed, our audit committee recently engaged in a comprehensive, competitive process to determine the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the Company's 2017 fiscal year. On August 2, 2017, the audit committee approved the engagement of EY as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, effective upon completion of EY's client acceptance process, for the year ended December 31, 2017, and dismissed KMPG from that role. EY advised the Company that it completed its client acceptance process on August 4, 2017. During the Company's two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the subsequent interim period through August 2, 2017, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with EY on any matters described in Item 304(a)(2) of Regulation S-K.

        KPMG's reports on the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the subsequent interim period through August 2, 2017, there were (i) no "disagreements" as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and (ii) no "reportable events" as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

        On August 4, 2017, the Company filed with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing the appointment of EY and dismissal of KPMG. The Company provided KPMG with a copy of such Current Report on Form 8-K, which included as Exhibit 16.1 a letter from KPMG addressed to the SEC indicating whether it agrees with such disclosures.

        THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE RATIFICATION OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP AS THE COMPANY'S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE 2018 FISCAL YEAR.

PROPOSAL NO. 4: APPROVAL OF FIFTH AMENDED AND
RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION

        At the annual meeting, holders of common stock will be asked to approve our Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation primarily to remove provisions relating to the tracking stock structure as reflected on Annex A. We refer to this proposal as the Charter Proposal. On November 17, 2017 we completed our previously announced split-off of our former wholly-owned subsidiary Cannae Holdings, Inc., or Cannae. The Split-Off was accomplished by our redemption of all of the outstanding shares of our FNFV Group common stock for outstanding shares of common stock of Cannae on a one-for-one basis.

        As a result of the Split-Off, Cannae is a separate, publicly traded company and its businesses, assets and liabilities primarily consist of those formerly attributed to the FNFV Group common stock, including Ceridian Holding, LLC, American Blue Ribbon Holdings, LLC and T-System Holding LLC. All of FNF's core title insurance, real estate, technology and mortgage related businesses, assets and

62

Table of Contents

liabilities not held by Cannae remain with FNF. In addition, as result of the Split-Off, no shares of FNFV Group common stock were outstanding as of the record date.

        The sole purpose of the Charter Proposal is to remove provisions in our Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation relating to the FNF Group and FNFV Group tracking stock structure. As a result, FNF's common stock will no longer include the FNF Group common stock and FNFV Group common stock, and will be reclassified solely to consist of one class of common stock referred to as "Common Stock".

        The Charter Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote thereon.

        THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE APPROVAL OF THE FIFTH AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS,
DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

        The number of our common shares beneficially owned by each individual or group is based upon information in documents filed by such person with the Securities and Exchange Commission, other publicly available information or information available to us. Percentage ownership in the following tables is based on 274,588,956 shares of FNF Group stock outstanding as of April 16, 2018. Unless otherwise indicated, each of the shareholders has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares of FNF Group stock or FNFV Group stock beneficially owned by that shareholder. The number of shares beneficially owned by each shareholder is determined under rules issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans

        The following table provides information as of December 31, 2017 about our common stock which may be issued under our equity compensation plans:

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Agreements with Cannae

        As a result of the Split-Off, FNF and Cannae operate separately. In connection with the Split-Off, our title insurance underwriters Fidelity National Title Insurance Company, Chicago Title Insurance Company and Commonwealth Land Title Insurance Company contributed an aggregate of $100 million to Cannae in exchange for 5,706,134 shares of Cannae common stock. As of December 31, 2017, these shares represented approximately 8% of Cannae's outstanding shares. We will dispose of the Cannae shares as soon as a disposition is warranted consistent with the business reasons for the ownership of the shares, but in no event later than five years after the Split-Off. In addition, we are subject to certain restrictions regarding voting of our Cannae shares described under "Voting Agreement" below. In addition, we and Cannae have overlapping executive officers. William P. Foley, II, our non-executive Chairman, is Executive Chairman of Cannae and serves on the boards of directors of FNF and Cannae; Brent B. Bickett, our Executive Vice President of Corporate Strategy is President of Cannae; and Michael L. Gravelle, our Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, serves as Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of Cannae. In order to govern certain of the ongoing relationships between us and Cannae and to provide mechanisms for an orderly transition, we have entered into certain agreements with Cannae, the terms of which are summarized below.

Reorganization Agreement

        In connection with the Split-Off, we entered into a reorganization agreement with Cannae (the reorganization agreement) to provide for, among other things, the principal corporate transactions required to effect the Split-Off, certain conditions to the Split-Off and provisions governing the relationship between Cannae and FNF with respect to and resulting from the Split-Off.

        The reorganization agreement provided for that, prior to the redemption date, (i) FNF would contribute to Cannae all of the assets and liabilities of Fidelity National Financial Ventures Group and

65

---

Table of Contents

(ii) subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, FNF would redeem each outstanding share of FNFV common stock for shares of Cannae common stock that FNF received pursuant to the contribution.

        The reorganization agreement also provides for mutual indemnification obligations, which are designed to make Cannae financially responsible for substantially all of the liabilities that may exist relating to the conduct of the businesses included in Cannae, whether such conduct occurred before or after the Split-Off, together with certain other specified liabilities, as well as for all liabilities incurred by Cannae after the Split-Off, and to make FNF financially responsible for all potential liabilities of Cannae which are not related to Cannae's businesses, including, for example, any liabilities arising as a result of Cannae having been a subsidiary of FNF, together with certain other specified liabilities. These indemnification obligations exclude any matters relating to taxes. The reorganization agreement also provides for each of Cannae and FNF to preserve the confidentiality of all confidential or proprietary information of the other party for five years following the closing of the Split-Off (or three years following disclosure of such information to the other party, whichever is longer), subject to customary exceptions, including disclosures required by law, court order or government regulation.

Voting Agreement

        In connection with the Split-Off and the issuance of the FNF Cannae shares, we entered into a voting agreement with Cannae (the voting agreement), pursuant to which we have agreed to cause our Cannae shares to be counted as present at any meeting of the stockholders of Cannae for the purpose of establishing a quorum. Additionally, under the voting agreement, we agreed to vote all of our Cannae shares in the same manner as, and in the same proportion to, all shares voted by holders of Cannae common stock (other than FNF and our subsidiaries) until the date on which FNF and our subsidiaries no longer beneficially own shares of Cannae common stock. In addition, we will not deposit any of our Cannae shares into a voting trust or grant any proxies or enter into a voting agreement, power of attorney or voting trust with respect to any of our Cannae shares, or take any action that would have the effect of preventing or materially delaying us from performing any of our obligations under the voting agreement.

Tax Matters Agreement

        We have also entered into a tax matters agreement with Cannae that governs our respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to taxes, the filing of tax returns, the control of audits and other tax matters.

        Under the tax matters agreement, Cannae will pay, or as applicable, indemnify the FNF Group for any losses incurred by FNF with respect to (i) any taxes attributable to the operation and investments of the Cannae Group with respect to a pre Split-Off taxable period including any reduction to such taxes by reason of the use or offset of any tax item that is allocated to FNF, (ii) any taxes incurred as a result of the contribution and redemption, and (iii) any transfer taxes arising from the contribution and redemption, in each case other than taxes that arise from a disqualifying action. FNF will pay, or as applicable, indemnify the Cannae Group for any losses incurred by the Cannae Group with respect to (i) any taxes imposed by reason of a member of the Cannae Group having been a member of an FNF consolidated group on or prior to the Split-Off date, excluding any taxes which Cannae is responsible for as described above, (ii) any reduction in a tax payable by the FNF Group by reason of the use or offset of any tax item that is allocated to Cannae, and (iii) any taxes that are attributable to a disqualifying action.

        FNF will be responsible for preparing and filing all tax returns which include one or more members of the FNF Group and one or more members of the Cannae Group. After the Split-Off, Cannae will prepare and file all tax returns of passthrough entities that report taxes that will be

66

---

Table of Contents

reflected on a tax return of a member of the FNF Group, and FNF will have review and approval rights with respect to such tax returns.

        Generally, each of FNF and Cannae will be entitled to any refunds, credits, or offsets relating to taxes allocated to and paid by its respective group under the tax matters agreement. The members of the Cannae Group must waive their rights to carryback any tax attribute to a pre Split-Off taxable period of an FNF consolidated tax return to the extent permitted by applicable law. If such member is unable to elect to forego such carryback, the FNF Group will be entitled to any refunds resulting from such carryback.

        If a party to the tax matters agreement receives a notice of a tax audit from a tax authority, and believes it may have a suffered or could potentially suffer any tax liability for which it may request indemnification, it must inform the party liable to make such indemnification payment (the indemnifying party). The indemnifying party has the right to control such audit and compromise or settle such tax audit, provided that the indemnified party must consent to such compromise or settlement to the extent that the indemnified party may be materially affected by such compromise or settlement. However, in the case of an audit relating to the tax free status of the transactions, FNF and Cannae will have the right to jointly control the audit.

        To the extent permitted by applicable tax law, FNF and Cannae agree to treat any payments made under the tax matters agreement as a capital contribution or distribution (as applicable) immediately prior to the Split-Off. The amount of any indemnification payment made under the tax matters agreement will be reduced by the amount of any reduction in taxes actually realized by the party receiving such payment as a result of the event giving rise to the indemnification payment by the end of the taxable year in which the indemnity payment is made, and will be increased if and to the extent necessary to ensure that, after all required taxes on the indemnity payment are paid (including taxes applicable to any increases in the indemnity payment), the indemnified party receives the amount it would have received if the indemnity payment was not taxable.

        We also agreed with Cannae to terminate any agreements that, due to applicable regulatory requirements, cannot be terminated as of closing of the Split-Off (a Regulatory Agreement). If, following the Split-Off, any member of either the FNF Group or the Cannae Group is required, pursuant to any Regulatory Agreement, to make a payment to the other group, the party whose group received such a payment will be required to make a corresponding payment in equal amount to the other party, so that each group will be in the same economic position had such Regulatory Agreement been terminated as of closing.

        Finally, Cannae and its subsidiaries will be restricted by certain covenants related to the Split-Off. These restrictive covenants require that none of Cannae and its subsidiaries will:

•

take, or fail to take, any action if such action, or failure to act, would be inconsistent with any covenant or representation made by Cannae or any of its subsidiaries in any transaction document, or prohibit certain restructuring transactions related to the Split-Off from qualifying for tax-free treatment for U.S. federal income tax purposes;



•

during the restricted period, enter into any agreement, understanding, arrangement or substantial negotiations, pursuant to which any person or persons would (directly or indirectly) acquire, or have the right to acquire, Cannae equity interests; or



•

during the restricted period, discontinue, sell, transfer or cease to maintain its active trade or business.

67

Table of Contents

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cannae and its affiliates may take an action prohibited by the foregoing if (i) FNF receives prior written notice describing the proposed action in reasonable detail, and (ii) Cannae delivers to FNF either (x) an opinion from a nationally recognized U.S. tax advisor providing that the completion of a proposed action by the Cannae Group (or any member thereof) should not affect the tax-free status of the transactions, or (y) a private letter ruling providing that the completion of a proposed action by the Cannae Group would not affect the tax-free status of the transactions, in each case in form and substance satisfactory to FNF. In addition, under certain circumstances Cannae will be permitted to issue reasonable Cannae equity-based compensation for services rendered to a member of the Cannae Group, provided that such person is permitted to receive Cannae stock under Safe Harbor VIII in Treasury regulations section 1.355-7(d).

Corporate Services Agreement

        We entered into a corporate services agreement with Cannae (the corporate services agreement) pursuant to which we will provide Cannae with certain specified services, including insurance administration and risk management; other services typically performed by FNF's legal, investor relations, tax, human resources, accounting and internal audit departments; and such other similar services that Cannae may from time to time request or require.

        We agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep and maintain in effect its relationships with its licensors, vendors and service providers that are integral to the provision of the corporate services to Cannae. The corporate services agreement will continue in effect until the earlier of (i) the date on which the corporate services agreement is terminated by mutual agreement of Cannae and FNF and (ii) the third anniversary of the date on which the corporate services agreement was entered into.

        During the initial three years, we will provide these corporate services at no-cost, other than reimbursement for reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by us in connection with providing such services to Cannae. If the corporate services agreement remains in place for three years and is not mutually terminated by Cannae and FNF prior to that time, following the expiration of the initial three-year term, the corporate services agreement will automatically renew for successive one-year terms unless FNF and Cannae mutually agree to terminate the agreement. Prior to any such one-year renewal term, FNF and Cannae will negotiate mutually agreeable arm's length terms for the compensation Cannae will provide to us in exchange for the corporate services during such upcoming one-year term.

        Pursuant to the corporate services agreement, we received $150,759 in revenues from Cannae from the Split-Off until December 31, 2017.

Registration Rights Agreement

        Our title insurance underwriter subsidiaries that own Cannae shares (the Registration Rights Agreements parties) entered into registration rights agreements with Cannae. The registration rights agreements provide the Registration Rights Agreements parties, and their permitted transferees, with the right to require Canane, at its expense, to register shares of Cannae common stock that the Registration Rights Agreements parties hold. The agreements also provide that Cannae will pay certain expenses of these electing holders relating to such registrations and indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise under the Securities Act. The following description summarizes such rights and circumstances.

Demand Rights

        Subject to certain limitations, beginning one year following the effectiveness of the proxy statement/prospectus related to the Split-Off, the Registration Rights Agreements parties (and their

68

---

Table of Contents

permitted transferees) will have the right, by delivering written notice to Cannae, to require Cannae to register the number of shares of common stock requested to be so registered in accordance with the registration rights agreement. Within five days following receipt of notice of a demand registration, we will be required to give written notice to all other beneficial holders of our registrable shares of common stock that have joined the registration rights agreement. Subject to certain limitations as described below, Cannae will include in the registration all securities with respect to which its receives a written request for inclusion in the registration within ten days after Cannae gives notice. Following the demand request, Cannae is required to use reasonable best efforts to have the applicable registration statement filed with the SEC within a specified period following the demand and is required to use best efforts to cause the registration statement to be declared effective. Any demand registration must include registrable securities having an aggregate market value of at least $10 million, and holders of Cannae's registrable securities are limited to one demand registration within any nine month period.

Shelf Registration Rights on Form S-3

        If Cannae is eligible to file a shelf registration statement on Form S-3, holders of registrable securities with registration rights under the registration rights agreement can request that Cannae register their shares for resale. Within five days following receipt of notice of a Form S-3 registration request, Cannae will be required to give written notice to all other beneficial holders of registrable shares of common stock that have joined the registration rights agreement. Subject to certain limitations as described below, Cannae will include in the Form S-3 registration all securities with respect to which it has received a written request for inclusion in the registration within seven days after it gives notice. Following such request, Cannae is required to use reasonable efforts to have the shelf registration statement declared effective. No Form S-3 registration request may be made within nine months following a prior demand or request.

        In addition, once a shelf registration statement has been declared effective by the SEC pursuant to the forgoing, thereafter, from time to time, any holder of registrable securities that has joined the registration rights agreement may, by notice to Cannae, require Cannae to register such holder's registrable securities pursuant to the shelf registration statement.

Piggyback Rights

        Holders of registrable shares of common stock under the registration rights agreement will be entitled to request to participate in, or "piggyback" on, registrations of certain securities for sale by Cannae at any time after the Split-Off. This piggyback right will apply to any registration other than registration statements relating to any employee benefit plans, registration statements related to the issuance or resale of securities issued in connection with transactions or corporate reorganizations under Rule 145 of the Securities Act, or registration statements related to stock issued upon conversion of debt securities.

Conditions and Limitations

        The registration rights are subject to conditions and limitations, including the right of the underwriters to limit the number of shares to be included in a registration statement and Cannae's right to delay, suspend or withdraw a registration statement under specified circumstances. Additionally, in certain circumstances Cannae may withdraw a registration upon request by the holder of registrable securities.

Revolver Note

        We entered into a revolver note with Cannae, which allows Cannae to borrow revolving loans from us from time to time in an aggregate amount not to exceed $100 million. The proceeds of the revolving loans may be used for investment purposes and working capital needs. The revolving loans accrue interest at LIBOR plus 450 basis points and mature on the five-year anniversary of the date of the revolver note. The maturity date is automatically extended for additional five-year terms unless notice of non-renewal is otherwise provided by either FNF or Cannae, in their sole discretion.

Agreements with Black Knight

        As a result of the Spin-Off, FNF and Black Knight are separate independent companies. Mr. Foley, our Chairman of the Board, also serves as Executive Chairman of Black Knight and is a director of both FNF and Black Knight, and Mr. Gravelle, our Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, serves as Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of Black Knight. In addition, Thomas M. Hagerty, Richard N. Massey and John D. Rood serve on the boards of directors of both FNF and Black Knight. In order to govern certain of the ongoing relationships between us and Black Knight following the Spin-Off, we have entered into certain agreements with Black Knight, the terms of which are summarized below.

Tax Matters Agreement

        In connection with the Spin-Off, we entered into a tax matters agreement with Black Knight that governs our respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to taxes, the filing of tax returns, the control of audits and other tax matters.

        Under the tax matters agreement, we will be required to indemnify Black Knight for (i) any taxes of Black Knight or its subsidiaries New BKH Corp. (New BKH) or Black Knight Holdings, Inc. (BKHI) (except for taxes otherwise required to be indemnified by Black Knight, as described below) with respect to a pre-Spin-Off taxable period, (ii) any taxes (except for taxes otherwise required to be indemnified by us) pursuant to Treasury regulations Section 1.1502-6 (or comparable provision under any other applicable law) by reason of New BKH, BKHI, or Black Knight having been a member of an FNF Group on or prior to the Spin-Off date, (iii) any taxes resulting from the contributions or the Spin-Off failing to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the IRC and a distribution to which Section 355 of the IRC applies, (iv) any taxes arising as a result of the separation (other than taxes set forth in clause (iii), above), and (v) all transfer taxes, except, in each case, for taxes that arise from or are attributable to what we refer to as a Black Knight disqualifying action (as such term is described below).

        Black Knight will be required to indemnify the FNF Group for (i) any taxes of New BKH or Black Knight attributable to a post-Spin-Off taxable period, (ii) any taxes, including with respect to a pre-Spin-Off taxable period, attributable to the ownership of BKFS LLC units by BKHI and other FNF Group members (excluding any taxes arising from any transfer of the BKFS LLC units by BKHI or any FNF Group member) except to the extent BKFS LLC previously made a tax distribution to BKHI or an FNF Group member in respect of such taxes, (iii) any taxes that arise from or are attributable to (a) any action by Black Knight or any of its subsidiaries, or the failure to take any action within their control which, negates the tax-free status of the transactions; or (b) direct or indirect changes in ownership of Black Knight or New BKH equity interests that cause the Spin-Off to be a taxable event to FNF as a result of the application of Section 355(e) of the IRC or to be a taxable event as a result of a failure to satisfy the "continuity of interest" or "device" requirements for tax-free treatment under Section 355 of the IRC (clauses (a) and (b), together, which we refer to as Black Knight disqualifying actions.

70

Table of Contents

        FNF will be responsible for preparing and filing all tax returns that include one or more members of the FNF Group and one or more members of the Black Knight Group for taxable periods beginning on or before the Spin-Off date. After the Spin-Off date, Black Knight will prepare and file all tax returns filed by BKFS LLC that report taxes that will be reflected on a tax return of a member of the FNF Group, and FNF will have review and approval rights with respect to such tax returns.

        Generally, each of FNF and Black Knight will be entitled to any refunds, credits, or offsets relating to taxes allocated to and paid by its respective group under the tax matters agreement. The members of the Black Knight Group will be required to waive their rights to carryback any tax attribute to a pre-Spin-Off taxable period of an FNF consolidated tax return to the extent permitted by applicable law. If such member is unable to elect to forego such carryback, FNF will be entitled to any refunds resulting from such carryback.

        If a party to the tax matters agreement receives a notice of a tax audit from a tax authority, and believes it may have suffered or could potentially suffer any tax liability for which it may request indemnification, it must inform the party liable to make such indemnification payment, which we refer to as the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party will have the right to control such audit and compromise or settle such tax audit, provided that the indemnified party must consent to such compromise or settlement to the extent that the indemnified party may be materially affected by such compromise or settlement. FNF and Black Knight will each have the right to jointly control any audit or proceeding relating to taxes incurred in connection with a failure of the separation to qualify for tax-free treatment, and neither FNF nor Black Knight will be permitted to compromise or settle any such audit or proceeding without the other party's consent.

        To the extent permitted by applicable tax law, FNF, Black Knight and New BKH agree to treat any payments made under the tax matters agreement as a capital contribution or distribution (as applicable) immediately prior to the Spin-Off. The amount of any indemnification payment made under the tax matters agreement will be reduced by the amount of any reduction in taxes actually realized by the party receiving such payment as a result of the event giving rise to the indemnification payment by the end of the taxable year in which the indemnity payment is made, and will be increased if and to the extent necessary to ensure that, after all required taxes on the indemnity payment are paid (including taxes applicable to any increases in the indemnity payment), the indemnified party receives the amount it would have received if the indemnity payment was not taxable.

        Finally, Black Knight and its subsidiaries are restricted by certain covenants related to the Spin-Off. These restrictive covenants require that none of Black Knight and its subsidiaries will:

•

take, or fail to take, any action following the Spin-Off if such action, or failure to act, would be inconsistent with any covenant or representation made by Black Knight or any of its subsidiaries in any transaction document, or prohibit certain separation transactions related to the Spin-Off or the Spin-Off from qualifying for tax-free treatment for U.S. federal income tax purposes;



•

during the restricted period, enter into any agreement, understanding, arrangement or substantial negotiations, pursuant to which any person or persons would (directly or indirectly) acquire, or have the right to acquire, Black Knight or New BKH equity interests (other than in connection with the mergers); or



•

during the restricted period, sell or transfer, or cease to actively engage in, its active trade or business for purposes of Section 355(b) of the IRC.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, Black Knight and its affiliates may take an action prohibited by the foregoing if (i) FNF receives prior written notice describing the proposed action in reasonable detail, and (ii) Black Knight delivers to FNF either (x) an opinion from a nationally recognized U.S. tax advisor providing that the completion of a proposed action by the Black Knight Group (or any member thereof) would not affect the tax-free status of the transactions; or (y) a private letter ruling from the

71

Table of Contents

IRS providing that the completion of a proposed action by the Black Knight Group should not affect the tax-free status of the transactions, in each case in form and substance satisfactory to FNF; provided, however, that under certain circumstances, Black Knight shall be permitted to (A) redeem its shares on the open market pursuant to a certain share repurchase program and to issue reasonable Black Knight equity-based compensation for services rendered to a member of the Black Knight Group if such person is permitted to receive Black Knight stock under Safe Harbor VIII in Treasury regulations section 1.355-7(d), (B) repurchase equity interests of Black Knight from any person who acquired such equity interests pursuant to the BKFS merger or the Interest Exchange Agreement entered into between Black Knight and THL, or (C) issue equity in the manner described in U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.355-7(d)(9).

Services Agreements

        We have various agreements with Black Knight, including certain of its subsidiaries, pursuant to which Black Knight provides technology, data and analytics services, as well as corporate shared services and information technology. In addition, we provide certain corporate services to Black Knight, including certain legal services and corporate administrative services. Pursuant to these arrangements, during the year ended December 31, 2017, we received $12.3 million in revenues and recorded $56.8 million in operating expenses from Black Knight and its subsidiaries.

Sales Promotion Agreement

        In connection with the Spin-Off, we entered into a Sales Promotion Agreement with Black Knight, which we refer to as the sales promotion agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, each party agrees to co-operate with the other party in promoting such party's products and services to its customers. If the promotional activities are mutually advantageous, each party shall identify any customers who may be interested in the services of the other party, so that the parties can coordinate appropriate engagement of such promotional activities. The sales promotion agreement has an initial term of five years, and will renew automatically for additional five year terms unless terminated by either party with at least 90 days written notice prior to the start of the next term.

Non-Competition Agreement

        In connection with the Spin-Off, we entered into a Non-Competition Agreement with Black Knight, which we refer to as the non-competition agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, Black Knight will not, among other things, without our prior written consent, engage in or acquire any businesses engaged in title generation/escrow services, appraisal, or default and field services work (other than technology solutions for such services). Such restrictions are subject to an exception allowing Black Knight to acquire a business engaged in such restricted services if at least 90% of such business' revenue is contributed by activities other than such restricted activities. Black Knight also agreed not to engage in certain transactions such as a merger, sale of assets, or sale of greater than 5% of its equity interests to a buyer that derives 10% or more of its revenue from such restricted services. The non-competition agreement terminates on the tenth anniversary of the date of entry into such agreement.

Cross-Indemnity Agreement

        We have entered into a cross-indemnity agreement with ServiceLink. Pursuant to the cross-indemnity agreement, ServiceLink indemnifies us for liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from the conduct of ServiceLink's business or any action, suit or proceeding in which we or any of our subsidiaries are named by reason of being a successor to the business of LPS and the cause of such action, suit or proceeding relates to the business of ServiceLink. In return, we indemnify ServiceLink for liabilities relating to, arising out of, or resulting from the conduct of our business.

Other Related Party Transactions

        During 2017, certain entities owned or controlled by our non-executive Chairman, William P. Foley II, paid us an aggregate of $42,000 for information technology support services. Amounts paid to the Company by entities owned or controlled by Mr. Foley are believed to be at market rates for similar services or at the cost to provide the service incurred by the Company. Also, during 2017, we paid, in the ordinary course of business, amounts to certain companies owned, in whole or part by Mr. Foley, including: $647,734 to Rock Creek Cattle Company, Ltd. and affiliated companies related primarily to hosting Company events, $411,790 to Black Knight Sports and Entertainment, LLC and affiliated companies related primarily to the purchase season tickets and other tickets used for client entertainment and employee recognition, $108,350 to Foley Family Wines for wine purchases related to employee recognitions, and $121,213 to Mr. Foley's other affiliated companies primarily for travel to and hosting Company events. We believe the amounts charged to us in the foregoing transactions were fair and reasonable and represent market rates that would be charged to unaffiliated third party customers for the same types of services. We believe that FNF receives intangible business benefits as a result of these activities as they foster increased loyalty to the Company.

        On November 30, 2017, FNF made an investment of $213 million in FGL Holdings for which we received 13,732,000 common shares and 100,000 Series B Cumulative Preferred shares pursuant to an Investment Agreement among FGL Holdings, FNF and other parties thereto. As a result of the November 2017 investment, we hold an aggregate investment with a fair market value of approximately $246 million as of December 31, 2017 in FGL Holdings. The dividend rate of the preferred shares is 7.5% per annum, payable quarterly in cash or additional preferred shares, or PIK shares, at FGL's option, subject to increase beginning 10 years after issuance based on the then-current three-month LIBOR rate plus 5.5%. Commencing 10 years after issuance of the preferred shares, and only following a failed remarketing of the preferred shares, we will have the right to convert the preferred shares into a number of ordinary shares of FGL based upon a conversion ratio. We purchased the ordinary common shares and the preferred shares on the same terms and conditions as other parties to the Investment Agreement. Mr. Foley serves as FGL Holding's Co-Executive Chairman and owns approximately 10.5% of its outstanding ordinary shares. In addition, our director Richard N. Massey also serves as a director of FGL Holdings.

        Sara Bennett, the daughter-in-law of Mr. Quirk, is an attorney who is employed by a subsidiary of the Company as underwriting counsel. In 2017, Ms. Bennett's gross earnings were $386,087, which is consistent with other employees holding similar titles at the Company. She also received health and other benefits customarily provided to similarly situated employees.

        Our audit committee has reviewed and approved each of the transactions described above in accordance with the terms of our Code of Conduct related to the approval of related party transactions, which are described below. The audit committee also discussed and approved Mr. Foley's involvement with the Vegas Golden Knights and FGL Holdings.

Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons

        Pursuant to our codes of ethics, a "conflict of interest" occurs when an individual's private interest interferes or appears to interfere with our interests, and can arise when a director, officer or employee takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. Anything that would present a conflict for a director, officer or employee would also likely present a conflict if it is related to a member of his or her family. Our code of ethics states that clear conflict of interest situations involving directors, executive officers and other employees who occupy supervisory positions or who have discretionary authority in dealing with any third party specified below may include the following:

•

any significant ownership interest in any supplier or customer;

73

---

Table of Contents

•

any consulting or employment relationship with any customer, supplier or competitor; and



•

selling anything to us or buying anything from us, except on the same terms and conditions as comparable directors, officers or employees are permitted to so purchase or sell.

        It is our policy to review all relationships and transactions in which we and our directors or executive officers (or their immediate family members) are participants in order to determine whether the director or officer in question has or may have a direct or indirect material interest. Our Chief Compliance Officer, together with our legal staff, is primarily responsible for developing and implementing procedures to obtain the necessary information from our directors and officers regarding transactions to/from related persons. Any material transaction or relationship that could reasonably be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest must be discussed promptly with our Chief Compliance Officer. The Chief Compliance Officer, together with our legal staff, then reviews the transaction or relationship, and considers the material terms of the transaction or relationship, including the importance of the transaction or relationship to us, the nature of the related person's interest in the transaction or relationship, whether the transaction or relationship would likely impair the judgment of a director or executive officer to act in our best interest, and any other factors such officer deems appropriate. After reviewing the facts and circumstances of each transaction, the Chief Compliance Officer, with assistance from the legal staff, determines whether the director or officer in question (or their immediate family member) has a direct or indirect material interest in the transaction and whether or not to approve the transaction in question.

        With respect to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, our codes of ethics require that each such officer must:

•

discuss any material transaction or relationship that could reasonably be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest with our General Counsel;



•

in the case of our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, obtain the prior written approval of our General Counsel for all material transactions or relationships that could reasonably be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest; and



•

in the case of our Chief Executive Officer, obtain the prior written approval of the audit committee for all material transactions that could reasonably be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest.

        In the case of any material transactions or relationships involving our Chief Financial Officer or our Chief Accounting Officer, the General Counsel must submit a list of any approved material transactions semi-annually to the audit committee for its review.

        Under Securities and Exchange Commission rules, certain transactions in which we are or will be a participant and in which our directors, executive officers, certain shareholders and certain other related persons had or will have a direct or indirect material interest are required to be disclosed in this related person transactions section of our proxy statement. In addition to the procedures above, our audit committee reviews and approves or ratifies any such transactions that are required to be disclosed. The committee makes these decisions based on its consideration of all relevant factors. The review may be before or after the commencement of the transaction. If a transaction is reviewed and not approved or ratified, the committee may recommend a course of action to be taken.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

        Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, requires the Company's executive officers and directors to file reports of their ownership, and changes in ownership, of the Company's common stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Executive officers and directors are required by the Securities and Exchange Commission's regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all forms they

74

Table of Contents

file pursuant to Section 16 and the Company is required to report in this Proxy Statement any failure of its directors and executive officers to file by the relevant due date any of these reports during fiscal year 2017. Based solely upon a review of these reports, we believe all directors and executive officers of the Company complied with the requirements of Section 16(a) in 2017.

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

        Any proposal that a shareholder wishes to be considered for inclusion in the proxy and proxy statement relating to the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held in 2019, including submissions of shareholder director nominations in accordance with the proxy access procedures set forth in our bylaws, must be received by the Company no later than January 2, 2019. Any other proposal that a shareholder wishes to bring before the 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders without inclusion of such proposal in the Company's proxy materials must also be received by the Company no later than January 2, 2019. All proposals must comply with the applicable requirements or conditions established by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Company's bylaws, which requires among other things, certain information to be provided in connection with the submission of shareholder proposals. All proposals must be directed to the Secretary of the Company at 601 Riverside Avenue, Jacksonville, Florida 32204. The persons designated as proxies by the Company in connection with the 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders will have discretionary voting authority with respect to any shareholder proposal for which the Company does not receive timely notice.

OTHER MATTERS

        The Company knows of no other matters to be submitted at the meeting. If any other matters properly come before the meeting, the enclosed proxy card confers discretionary authority on the persons named in the enclosed proxy card to vote as they deem appropriate on such matters. It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy card to vote the shares in accordance with their best judgment.

ARTICLE IV

CAPITAL STOCK

        Section 4.1    The total number of shares of all classes of stock which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is 650,000,000, which will be divided into the following classes:

        (a)   600,000,000 shares will be of a class designated Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Common Stock"); and

        (b)   50,000,000 shares will be of a class designated preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Preferred Stock").

        Upon this Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation becoming effective pursuant to the DGCL (the "Effective Time"), each share of FNF Group Common Stock, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall automatically be reclassified as one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Common Stock, without any action of the holder thereof. Any stock certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of the FNF Group Common Stock will, from and after the Effective Time, automatically and without the necessity of presenting the same for exchange, represent the shares of the Common Stock.

        Section 4.2    Shares of Preferred Stock of the Corporation may be issued from time to time in one or more classes or series, each of which class or series shall have such distinctive designation and title as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "Board of Directors") prior to the issuance of any shares thereof. The Board of Directors is hereby authorized to fix the designation and title for each such class or series of Preferred Stock, to fix the voting powers, whether full or limited, or no voting powers, and such powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, and to fix the number of shares constituting such class or series (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding), in each case as shall be stated in such resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of such class or series of Preferred Stock as may be adopted from time to time by the Board of Directors prior to the issuance of any shares thereof pursuant to the authority hereby expressly vested in it.

        Section 4.3    Except as otherwise expressly required by law or provided in this Certificate of Incorporation, and subject to any voting rights provided to holders of Preferred Stock at any time outstanding, the holders of any outstanding shares of Common Stock shall vote together as a single class on all matters with respect to which stockholders are entitled to vote under applicable law, this Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the Corporation, or upon which a vote of stockholders is otherwise duly called for by the Corporation. At each annual or special meeting of stockholders, each holder of record of shares of Common Stock on the relevant record date shall be entitled to cast one vote in person or by proxy for each share of the Common Stock standing in such holder's name on the stock transfer records of the Corporation.

ARTICLE V

DIRECTORS

        Section 5.1    The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors, consisting of not less than one nor more that fourteen members with the exact number of directors to be determined from time to time exclusively by resolution adopted by the Board of Directors. The directors, other than those who may be elected by the holders of any class or series of Preferred Stock as set forth in this Certificate of Incorporation, shall be divided into three classes, designated Class I, Class II and Class III. Each class shall consist, as nearly as may be possible, of one-third of the total number of directors constituting the entire Board of

A-2

Table of Contents

Directors. At each annual meeting of stockholders, successors to the class of directors whose term expires at that annual meeting shall be elected for a three-year term.

        Section 5.2    If the number of directors is changed, any increase or decrease shall be apportioned among the classes so as to maintain the number of directors in each class as nearly equal as possible, and any additional director of any class elected to fill a vacancy resulting from an increase in such class shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that class, but in no case will a decrease in the number of directors shorten the term of any incumbent director. A director shall hold office until the annual meeting for the year in which his term expires and until his successor shall be elected and shall qualify for office, subject, however, to prior death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal from office. Any vacancy on the Board of Directors, however resulting, may be filled only by an affirmative vote of the majority of the directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by an affirmative vote of the sole remaining director. Any director elected to fill a vacancy shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the term of the class to which such director shall have been elected.

        Section 5.3    Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions, whenever the holders of any one or more classes or series of Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation shall have the right, voting separately by class or series, to elect directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, the election, term of office, filling of vacancies and other features of such directorships shall be governed by the terms of this Certificate of Incorporation, or the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors pursuant to Section 4.2 of this Certificate of Incorporation applicable thereto, and such directors so elected shall not be divided into classes pursuant to this Article V unless expressly provided by such terms.

ARTICLE VI

CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES

        (b)   The Corporation may from time to time be or become a party to and perform, and may cause or permit any subsidiary of the Corporation to be or become a party to and perform, one or more agreements (or modifications or supplements to pre-existing agreements) with Fidelity. Subject to Section 6.3 hereof, to the fullest extent permitted by law, no such agreement, nor the performance thereof in accordance with its terms by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries or Fidelity, shall be considered contrary to any fiduciary duty to the Corporation or to its stockholders of any director or officer of the Corporation who is also a director, officer or

employee of Fidelity. Subject to Section 6.3 hereof, to the fullest extent permitted by law, no director or officer of the Corporation who is also a director, officer or employee of Fidelity shall have or be under any fiduciary duty to the Corporation or its stockholders to refrain from acting on behalf of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries or on behalf of Fidelity in respect of any such agreement or performing any such agreement in accordance with its terms.

        Section 6.3    In the event that a director or officer of the Corporation who is also a director or officer of Fidelity acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity of both the Corporation and Fidelity, such director or officer of the Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have fully satisfied and fulfilled the fiduciary duty of such director or officer to the Corporation and its stockholders with respect to such corporate opportunity, if such director or officer acts in a manner consistent with the following policy:

        (a)   a corporate opportunity offered to any person who is an officer of the Corporation, and who is also a director but not an officer of Fidelity, shall belong to the Corporation, unless such opportunity is expressly offered to such person in a capacity other than such person's capacity as an officer of the Corporation, in which case it shall not belong to the Corporation;

        (b)   a corporate opportunity offered to any person who is a director but not an officer of the Corporation, and who is also a director or officer of Fidelity, shall belong to the Corporation only if such opportunity is expressly offered to such person in such person's capacity as a director of the Corporation; and

        (c)   a corporate opportunity offered to any person who is an officer of both the Corporation and Fidelity shall belong to the Corporation only if such opportunity is expressly offered to such person in such person's capacity as an officer of the Corporation.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall not be prohibited from pursuing any corporate opportunity of which the Corporation becomes aware.

        Section 6.4    Any person purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of the capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the provisions of this Article VI.

        Section 6.5    (a) For purposes of this Article VI, a director of any company who is the chairman of the board of directors of that company shall not be deemed to be an officer of the company solely by reason of holding such position.

        (b)   The term "Corporation" shall mean, for purposes of this Article VI, the Corporation and all corporations, partnerships, joint ventures, associations and other entities in which the Corporation beneficially owns (directly or indirectly) fifty percent or more of the outstanding voting stock, voting power, partnership interests or similar voting interests. The term "Fidelity" shall mean, for purposes of this Article VI and of Article IX hereof, Fidelity National Information Services, Inc., a Georgia corporation, and any successor thereof, and all corporations, partnerships, joint ventures, associations and other entities in which it beneficially owns (directly or indirectly) fifty percent or more of the outstanding voting stock, voting power, partnership interests or similar voting interests.

        Section 6.6    Anything in this Certificate of Incorporation to the contrary notwithstanding, the foregoing provisions of this Article VI shall terminate, expire and have no further force and effect on the date that no person who is a director or officer of the Corporation is also a director or officer of Fidelity. Neither the alteration, amendment, termination, expiration or repeal of this Article VI nor the adoption of any provision of this Certificate of Incorporation inconsistent with this Article VI shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Article VI in respect of any matter occurring, or any cause of action, suit or claim that, but for this Article VI, would accrue or arise, prior to such alteration, amendment, termination, expiration, repeal or adoption.

        Section 9.1    Actions required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders may be effected without a meeting by the written consent of the holders of common stock of the Corporation (a "Consent"), but only if such action is taken in accordance with the provisions of this Article IX or by the holders of any class or series of Preferred Stock issued pursuant to Article IV hereof, if the terms of such class or series of Preferred Stock expressly provide for such action by Consent.

        Section 9.2    The record date for determining stockholders entitled to authorize or take corporate action by Consent shall be as fixed by the Board of Directors or as otherwise established under this Article IX.

The Request must contain the information set forth in Section 9.3 hereof. By the later of (i) twenty days after delivery of a valid Request and (ii) five days after delivery of any information requested by the Corporation pursuant to Section 9.3 hereof, the Board of Directors shall determine the validity of the Request and whether the Request relates to an action that may be authorized or taken by Consent pursuant to this Article IX and, if appropriate, adopt a resolution fixing the record date for such purpose. The record date for such purpose shall be no more than ten days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors and shall not precede the date such resolution is adopted. If the Request has been determined to be valid and to relate to an action that may be authorized or taken by Consent pursuant to this Article IX or if such no determination shall have been made by the date required by this Article IX, and in either event no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date shall be the day on which the first signed Consent is delivered to the Corporation in the manner described in Section 9.7 hereof; except that, if prior action by the Board of Directors is required under the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the record date shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

The Board of Directors may require the stockholders submitting a Request to furnish such other information as it may require to determine the validity of the Request. Stockholders seeking to authorize or take action by Consent shall update the information provided in the Request as required by the Corporation's Bylaws with respect to information provided concerning nominations for elections to the Board or other business at annual stockholders meetings.

        Section 9.4    Stockholders are not entitled to authorize or take action by Consent if (a) the action relates to an item of business that is not a proper subject for stockholder action under applicable law, (b) an identical or substantially similar item of business, as determined by the Board of Directors in its reasonable determination, which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Corporation and its stockholders (a "Similar Item"), is included in the Corporation's notice of meeting as an item of business to be brought before an annual or special stockholders meeting that has been called but not yet held or that is called to be held on a date within 90 days after the receipt by the Corporation of the Request for such action, provided that the removal of directors without electing replacements shall not be a Similar Item to the election of directors, or (c) such Request was made in a manner that involved a violation of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or other applicable law.

        Section 9.5    Stockholders may authorize or take action by Consent only if such Consents are solicited from all holders of common stock of the Corporation.

        Section 9.6    Every Consent purporting to take or authorize the taking of corporate action must bear the date of signature of each stockholder who signs the Consent, and no Consent shall be effective to take or authorize the taking of the action referred to therein unless, within 60 days of the earliest dated Consent delivered in the manner required by Section 9.7 hereof, Consents signed by a sufficient number of stockholders to authorize or take such action are so delivered to the Corporation.

        Section 9.7    Every Consent purporting to take or authorize the taking of corporate action must be dated and delivered to the Corporation or its registered office in the State of Delaware no earlier than 60 days after the delivery of a valid Request. Consents must be delivered to the Corporation's registered office in the State of Delaware or its principal place of business. Delivery must be made by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. The Secretary of the Corporation, or such other officer of the Corporation as the Board of Directors may designate ("Other Officer"), shall provide for the safe-keeping of such Consents and any related revocations and shall promptly conduct such ministerial review of the sufficiency of all Consents and any related revocations and of the validity of the action to be authorized or taken by Consent as the Secretary of the Corporation or Other Officer, as the case may be, deems necessary or appropriate, including, without limitation, whether the holders of a number of shares having the requisite voting power to authorize or take the action specified in the Consents have given consent; provided, however, that if the action to which the Consents relate is the removal or replacement of one or more members of the Board of Directors, the

Secretary of the Corporation or Other Officer, as the case may be, shall promptly designate two persons, who shall not be members of the Board of Directors, to serve as inspectors ("Inspectors") with respect to such Consents and such Inspectors shall discharge the functions of the Secretary of the Corporation or Other Officer, as the case may be, under this Article IX. If after such investigation the Secretary of the Corporation, Other Officer, or the Inspectors, as the case may be, shall determine that the action has been duly authorized or taken by the Consents, that fact shall be certified on the records of the Corporation and the Consents shall be filed in such records. In conducting the investigation required by this Section 9.7, the Secretary of the Corporation, Other Officer, or the Inspectors, as the case may be, may retain special legal counsel and any other necessary or appropriate professional advisors as such person or persons may deem necessary or appropriate, at the expense of the Corporation, and shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the opinion of such counsel or advisors.

        Section 9.8    No action may be authorized or taken by the stockholders by Consent except in accordance with this Article IX. If the Board of Directors shall determine that any Request was not properly made in accordance with, or relates to an action that may not be effected by Consent pursuant to, this Article IX, or any stockholder seeking to authorize or take such action does not otherwise comply with this Article IX, then the Board of Directors shall not be required to fix a record date and any such purported action by Consent shall be null and void to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. No Consent shall be effective until such date as the Secretary of the Corporation, Other Officer, or the Inspectors, as the case may be, certify to the Corporation that the Consents delivered to the Corporation in accordance with Section 9.7 hereof represent at least the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take the corporate action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted, in accordance with Delaware law and this Certificate of Incorporation.

        Section 9.9    Nothing contained in this Article IX shall in any way be construed to suggest or imply that the Board of Directors or any stockholder shall not be entitled to contest the validity of any Consent or related revocations, whether before or after such certification by the Secretary of the Corporation, Other Officer, or the Inspectors, as the case may be, or to take any other action (including, without limitation, the commencement, prosecution, or defense of any litigation with respect thereto, and the seeking of injunctive relief in such litigation).

        Section 9.10    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, (a) none of the foregoing provisions of this Article IX shall apply to any solicitation of stockholder action by written consent by or at the direction of the Board of Directors and (b) the Board of Directors shall be entitled to solicit stockholder action by Consent in accordance with applicable law.

SPECIAL MEETINGS

OFFICERS

        The officers of the Corporation shall be chosen in such manner, shall hold their offices for such terms and shall carry out such duties as are determined solely by the Board of Directors, subject to the right of the Board of Directors to remove any officer or officers at any time with or without cause.

ARTICLE XII

INDEMNITY

        The Corporation shall indemnify to the full extent authorized or permitted by law any person made, or threatened to be made, a party to any action or proceeding (whether civil or criminal or otherwise) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or by reason of the fact that such director or officer, at the request of the Corporation, is or was serving any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, in any capacity. Nothing contained herein shall affect any rights to indemnification to which employees other than directors and officers may be entitled by law. No director of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty by such a director as a director. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, a director shall be liable to the extent provided by applicable law (a) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (b) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (c) pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL or (d) for any transaction from which such director derived an improper personal benefit.
